Data analysis involves thematic analysis, identifying patterns and themes related to sustainability, AI integration, and ethical branding practices. The study reveals that MSMEs can effectively leverage AI-driven marketing to enhance their ethical branding initiatives, fostering consumer trust and loyalty while contributing to sustainable development goals.
