| Abstract |
We present a conceptual approach that exposes the phenomenon of impact investments as a promoters of sustainable development from a perspective of dynamic creation and management of sustainable companies. In order to do so, we based our work on an inductive methodology that uses 3 study cases in the Colombian context, which exposes the participation of sustainable entrepreneurship and sustainable business performance as mediators in the proposed association. Like this, we contribute to the emerging topic of impact investments from the theoretical and practical scopes. Furthermore we present its link with topics like entrepreneurship and sustainable company management. Finally, we set the ground for future exercises that empirically examines the suggested model.
