Objective: This article aims to examine the direct relationship between technological opportunism (TO) and business sustainability (BS). The study examines the relation through the moderation of government regulations (GR) between TO and BS. The objectives of this research were to establish TO as an important antecedent for the sustainability of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), assess the interaction of TO with GR and establish relations with regard to how Pakistani SMEs focus on their business sustainability through government regulations.

Research Design & Methods: This empirical study is based on 480 key informants which belong to the SME sector of Pakistan. Structural Equation Modelling analysis was applied to analyse the research hypothesis by using Smart PLS.

Findings: Our analysis shows that TO and GR have a significant positive impact on BS of Pakistani SMEs. However, the interaction of TO and GR is also found to have a significant impact on BS but it is negative.

Implications & Recommendations: Furthermore, the study offers insights and implications for policy makers, regulators and academics that TO is the most important factor for business sustainability of SMEs.

Contribution & Value Added: The findings of this study bridge the gap between the entrepreneurial technological opportunism and business sustainability literature by establishing TO as an important antecedent of BS. (original abstract)
