This paper explores the critical aspects of sustainability in business, focusing on the role of state policies and legal frameworks, best practices for sustainable entrepreneurship, and the challenges associated with measuring sustainability. State interventions, including regulations, subsidies, and public-private partnerships, are examined to understand how governments encourage sustainable business practices. A comparative analysis of different legal frameworks, including those in the European Union, the United States, and China, highlights the variability in regulatory approaches and their impact on sustainability outcomes. Additionally, the paper outlines best practices for businesses, such as integrating sustainability into core strategies, stakeholder engagement, transparent reporting, circular economy principles, and supply chain sustainability. These practices not only drive innovation but also align business objectives with long-term environmental and social goals. Furthermore, the paper delves into the challenges of measuring sustainability, particularly the lack of standardized metrics, data quality issues, and the complexities of capturing social and cultural impacts. By providing a comprehensive overview of the strategies, challenges, and best practices, this paper underscores the importance of collaboration between governments and businesses in fostering a sustainable future.
