Abstract

Sustainable university is instrumental in integrating sustainability principles in all academic and operational aspects of the campus. Students are the centre of the university’s sustainability policy. This article discusses a sustainable digital business incubation ecosystem that includes important aspects of the programme, faculty, curriculum, methods, assessment, and outputs. The program is designed to support innovative and responsible business development with eco-friendly facilities and sustainable training. Lecturers act as mentors with digital technology and sustainability expertise. The cross-disciplinary curriculum combines information technology, management, and environmental studies with a project-based learning approach. Learning methods encourage collaboration and the use of digital technology. Assessments include business project evaluations, presentations, sustainability reports, and practical skills. Outputs are created in the form of innovative digital businesses and students who are ready to lead sustainable businesses. The finding reveals that this ecosystem is effective in creating an environment that supports the development of sustainable digital businesses, making positive contributions to society and the environment. This article contributes to providing a comprehensive ecosystem concept for universities, strengthening the role of universities in supporting sustainability, and making positive contributions to community and the environment through the realization of digital business incubation. The integration of these aspects in a sustainable digital business incubation ecosystem enhances the role of universities in supporting sustainability.
