There are various dynamics in the emergence of eco-innovation applications in businesses. It has been determined that a significant part of the literature on determining these dynamics is directed to developed countries. Unlike other studies, this study aims to determine the eco-innovation dynamics in terms of a developing country and contribute to the literature. Determining the dynamics that create eco-innovation within the framework of manufacturing enterprises has considered economic growth theory, natural resource-based theory, and the Porter hypothesis. The questionnaire was administered to the first 500 manufacturing companies in Turkey. According to the path analysis, dynamics that significantly trigger eco-innovation practices have been determined. Eco-innovation is considered a solution to overcoming sustainability and environmental crisis challenges. Therefore, eco-innovation adoption depends on explaining clearly the dynamics at every economic level. In this respect, this study guides decision-makers who want to create environmental benefits by spreading eco-innovation practices.
