Introduction to Circular Business Models (CBMs): Definition, Evolution, and Key Principles
Abstract
The circular economy has emerged as a compelling alternative to the traditional linear “take-make-dispose” economic model, gaining significant traction across academia, industry, and policymaking (Geissdoerfer et al., 2020). This shift is primarily driven by an increasing awareness of the environmental impacts associated with linear systems, especially the rapid depletion of resources and growing waste production (Henry et al., 2020). At the heart of this transformation, circular business models offer innovative solutions that decouple economic growth from resource depletion by prioritizing closed-loop systems and enhancing resource efficiency (Adam et al., 2017).In this section, the chapter will define circular economy business model (CEBM) in precise terms. The circular business model notion is based on two underlying concepts: the circular economy and business model innovation. This section will introduce the circular economy, business model innovation and circular business models topics. The researchers will conduct a literature review of the circular business models.
