Ouverture de ‘Circular Economy & New Business Models’

Circular economy business models essentially fall into two main groups: (1)
models focused on reorienting traditional business, and (2) models that involve
creating a new business specifically aimed at recovering resources.
The timing and ways of transforming an old business into a circular one could find
useful drivers in a systemic approach that involves policy makers and legislators to
implement effective regulations and incentives, the financial sector, public
authorities and civil society.
By converse, big global corporations often develop circular economy within a
company’s network. From this perspective, some companies are specifically oriented
towards recycling, while other companies belonging to the same group use raw
materials obtained from recycling, thus gaining an extensive competitive advantage
for all the network’s companies (competitive circular economy).
