The arrival of the digitalization era in recent years, amidst the knowledge-based industries at the end of the twentieth century have raised issues and challenges on sustainability amongst businesses. The global business competition in this era has correspondingly changed the landscape of the business economy, that both tangible and intangible assets have been counted in defining the “wealth” of any businesses. Accordingly, from the perspective of corporate disclosure, both financial and non-financial information are perceived significant to portray the economic value of the businesses. This book provides a platform for researchers to discuss related current business sustainability issues in this 21st Century. Ideally, business sustainability integrates economic, environmental and social elements in its business operations. Therefore, this book has organised its chapters in accordance to these themes, hence make the discussion more resourceful. The authors have made every effort to present knowledge about business sustainability challenges and opportunities to the intended users from the standpoint of the themes discussed in each chapter. The chapters begin with the discussion of the term “Business Sustainability”. The sustainability term was discussed in accordance to the three themes; economic, environmental and social in the first chapter in the book. Then, the rest of the following chapters discuss their topics focusing on the respective issues on the business sustainability. From the editorial board, we hope that expertise shared by many respected authors of this book contribute to enhance knowledge and understanding regarding business sustainability in the twenty-first century.
