Abstract

This article uses CiteSpace software to analyze the correlation between ESG (environmental, social, and governance) performance and corporate innovation capabilities. A knowledge graph of ESG and corporate innovation research was constructed through coword analysis and timeline view analysis of the Web of Science core collection literature from 2010–2023. Research has shown that good ESG performance is a positive compensatory effect on innovation capability and that improvements in ESG performance contribute to the development of innovation activities in companies. This article provides a new perspective on how ESGs promote corporate innovation.
