Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the impact of corporate social responsibility on green technology innovation, with the aim of how to promote corporate social responsibility and green technology innovation. Theoretical Framework: The stakeholder theory was demonstrated to be consistent with the person responsible for corporate social responsibility. This paper discussed the relationship between variables, with stakeholders as a central dimension, while considering their role in achieving SDGs. Method: The methodology adopted for this research comprised using quantitative research methods, structural equation models, and jamovi for data analysis. Data collection was carried out through a questionnaire survey. Results and Discussion: The results obtained revealed that social responsibility had a significant positive impact on green technology innovation. The supply chain had an intermediary effect between the two, and a low-carbon policy had a regulatory effect. Because the research was mainly concentrated in the city of Chengdu, the case collection was limited, and there were certain limitations. Research Implications: Focused on the needs of more stakeholders, enterprises cultivated their sustainable development ability, and promoted themselves to pay attention to the latest development and technological progress in the field of environmental protection. Originality/Value: This study contributed to the literature by introducing two new variables in social responsibility and green technology innovation to establish a structural equation model. The relevance and value of this research were evidenced by low-carbon policy support and sustainable management of enterprise supply, which aimed to promote social responsibility reform and ensure the long-term success and sustainability of the company.
