Abstract: The present investigation aims to explore the research nexus between Knowledge Management (KM), Innovation (INN), and Sustainable Development (SD) in general and with special reference to the Romanian economy. Therefore, this study presents an understanding of the ongoing research themes, significant publications, and focus themes in this line of interdisciplinary research by performing a bibliometric analysis that includes papers listed in the Web of Science (WoS) database. The paper was useful in showing that KM is the basis for building an innovative environment under the principles of sustainable development, which is necessary to address economic issues currently observed in Romania and other countries. This proposed research also recognizes the growing concern of academicians about combining these ideas for equitable economic growth and development objectives. As for the specific results, significant journals, crucial articles, and authoritative terms have been retrieved, and the results provide important information on the intellectual map of the research area. This paper, therefore, adds to this body of knowledge by presenting some trends, potentials, gaps, and directions for future investigations of these linkages. Conclusively, it underlines the importance of these linkages for policymakers, professionals, and scholars. As a result, the conceptual framework and operationalization of the research questions contribute to the development of the study by fostering further research that is more specific to the Romanian context and is in line with the state s socio-economic development priorities in sustainable innovation.
