Abstract

This research investigates the role of artificial intelligence (AI)–enabled Strategic Business Units (SBUs) in advancing corporate sustainability through the effective implementation of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As organizations increasingly face pressure to align business performance with global sustainability imperatives, SBUs—owing to their operational autonomy and strategic focus—emerge as critical drivers of AIassisted sustainability transformation. The study examines how AI technologies, including data analytics and intelligent decision-support systems, are integrated into SBU-level planning, operational processes, and sustainability performance measurement. Using a qualitative case study approach, the research identifies best practices, implementation challenges, and success factors across selected organizations. The findings reveal that successful AI-enabled SDG integration at the SBU level depends on leadership commitment, data-driven decision-making capabilities, stakeholder engagement, cross-functional collaboration, and adaptive performance metrics supported by AI insights. The study highlights SBUs as innovation hubs that leverage artificial intelligence to design targeted, scalable, and context-aware sustainability solutions. By bridging sustainability strategy and AI-enabled execution, this research contributes to the evolving discourse on intelligent sustainable business models and offers practical implications for corporations seeking to operationalize SDGs through digital and AI-driven approaches.
