Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the impact of entrepreneurship as a tool for enhancing shared value and to explore its ability to achieve sustainable economic growth while considering the social dimension within the Algerian business environment. The study adopted a descriptive-analytical approach, utilizing a questionnaire as the primary data collection tool. A total of 40 questionnaires were distributed, with 34 successfully retrieved and analyzed using SPSS to measure the impact and identify relationships between study variables. The findings revealed a statistically significant impact relationship between entrepreneurship and the creation of shared value, confirming that adopting an entrepreneurial mindset enhances an organization’s ability to balance economic gains with social benefits, thereby contributing to sustainable development efforts. Therefore, the study recommends that organizations adopt innovative entrepreneurial strategies focused on sustainable development that benefit both the company and society while ensuring business sustainability in an evolving competitive environment.
