The shift to cloud computing has intensified ethical and legal tensions over privacy, jurisdiction and regulatory requirements. The attention towards the socio-environmental consequences of economic and industrial interference is growing as corporations stress on the sustainable aspects of supply chain and product creation. The transformation of cloud technology to a sustainable innovation ecosystem depends on several ethical practices. The objective of this study is to analyse the critical factors required for the adoption of ethical, legal, and regulatory compliance for cloud technology in a sustainable innovation ecosystem. Design/Methodology/Approach: Under the doctrinal approach, the authors used an analytical method to analyse the ethical and legal perspective for the use of cloud technology in the innovation ecosystem. The authors critically analyse the international, regional and national regulatory guidelines concerning cloud technology. Findings: The study shows the lack of universally accepted framework to regulate the usage of cloud technology in a sustainable innovation ecosystem. Keeping in mind the ethical and legal impact of technology on the society and environment, the study insists global attention. Limitations: The analysis of the ethical and legal implications on the managerial and administrative aspects supports the stakeholders to comprehend the issues (ethical, legal and social) in relation to cloud technology. The study limits to focus on ethical and legal implications concerning usage of cloud technology in innovation ecosystem. Research Originality: This study critically explores the factors responsible for the rising ethical and legal issues in the usage of cloud technology in the tech-driven world. 2025 Ananya Pandey, Jipson Joseph, Amit Joshi and Vikas Kumar.
