abstract = {Blockchain technology has the potential to drive innovations across various industries,
businesses, and use cases. It is broadly recognized that innovation is a vital source of competitive
advantage in a rapidly changing environment. High expectations surround blockchain’s potential for
contributing to sustainable economic and social development. However, current blockchain projects
still show high failure rates. The associated side effects of such failure rates generate a negative impact
on economic and social sustainability performances such as corporate governance, risk management,
finance management, human resources and culture management, and competitiveness. This paper
assesses adoption models and their risk and success factors. Building on a novel, integrated adoption
model to operationalize, measure and manage blockchain-driven business innovation in a sustainable
way, we assessed its applicability with an empirical study across 20 industry sectors and 125 business
leaders. The results reveal that the developed adoption model holds the potential to support the
sustainable usage of blockchain technology for business innovations, not limited to a specific industry
or use case. Further case studies and industry activities can be carried out to continue its validation
in future works.},
