ABSTRACT The purpose of this paper is to examine the factors that challenge or motivate textile and apparel suppliers' implementation circular economy (CE) practices. To end, we interviewed 18 senior managers from Bangladeshi suppliers. key reported challenges CE were cost concerns, reluctance entrepreneurs, lack regulatory influence, unavailability appropriate technology adequate research development projects. Conversely, long‐term benefits, buyer pressure, rising awareness, growing collaboration growth in funding as motivating for implementation. In particular, beyond conflicts between financial concerns legitimacy, our findings support institutional theory enhance literature by revealing new insights into normative such agencies' collaboration, which suppliers effectively implement This has significant implications policymakers regarding how capitalise on overcome

Abstract In transitioning from a linear economy model to circular business, digital technologies can help manage the flow of restorative and regenerative resources. this context, present study aims evaluate contribution technologies, such as internet things (IoT), Big Data Blockchain in execution (CE) practices what mechanisms companies are adopting integrate into context. The research method consists an exploratory case with qualitative approach. Two prominent took part study. results indicate benefits highlighted by companies, contemplate that analysis has improved performance data processing management, IoT added monitoring traceability companies' packaging, thus bringing efficiency recycling, recovery, reuse disposal, provides traceability, security reliability for implemented practice. This contributes exploring factors will explain mechanism implementing CE practices. integrates two dimensions (i.e., technology). doing so, it expands previous studies on technologies. As practical contribution, understood integration startups development projects. addition innovative proposals, they management solutions

The link between the field of information technology business value and sustainable activities is a widely discussed topic in academia management. However, mechanisms that lead to impact on performance are still elusive. circular economy one most recent approaches address sustainability challenges. Drawing perspective technology-enabled organizational capabilities contingency theory, this study first analyze how systems enable practices become higher-order enhance performance, as well moderation environmental uncertainty exerts relationship. Using partial least squares path modeling, empirical evidence demonstrates fully mediate relationship performance. Meanwhile, negatively moderates both mediation capabilities-business For managers, research embedding into processes for transitioning model can present economic benefits depending upon within their specific operating environment. Finally, our analysis method combines predictive causal techniques with structural equation modeling applies compelling approach testing conditional effects.

Abstract Implementing the circular economy (CE) requires novel forms of stakeholder collaboration. While contemporary literature on theory is commonly characterized as “pro‐business‐oriented,” it remains ambiguous how precisely collaborations may pave way for a systemic CE transition. By applying qualitative‐empirical research approach utilizing semi‐structured interviews, this paper identifies three types governance collaborations—(i) company‐centric governance, (ii) industry‐oriented and (iii) cross‐industry‐oriented governance. Our contribution to lies in examining transition bridge “the stakeholder‐system divide.” We emphasize unique role innovative ensuring success relationships while highlighting changes business environment give an impetus collaborations. contribute by gaining following insights into European chemicals plastics industry: (a) successful typically feature variety different stakeholders maintaining close mutual interactions; (b) calls managerial strategies that are collectively governance‐oriented rather than company‐centric. This article thus sheds light criticality collective‐oriented fostering practices within industry need be extended beyond immediate industrial sectoral boundaries.

Enhancing the emphasis on incorporating sustainable practices reinforces a linear transition towards circular economy by organizations. Nevertheless, although studies demonstrate an increasing trend, drivers that support business performance in Small and Medium-Sized Enterprise (SME) sector, especially developing nations, demand exploration. Accordingly, study examines drivers, i.e., green human resource management, establishing sustainability environmental dynamism as moderating variables. The engaged 207 SMEs 621 respondents who were analyzed utilizing structural equation modeling. analysis indicated was affected management economy. Subsequently, mediated linkage between resources performance. moderated

Abstract This study addresses the challenges faced by small‐ and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs) in undertaking sustainability projects due to limited resources explores factors influencing SMEs' adoption of circular economy (CE) practices, an area under‐researched literature. Analysing data from 205 SMEs Spain's forest bioeconomy sector using fuzzy sets (fs/QCA), finds that internal external social capital, coupled with adaptive capacity, are crucial influences, particularly when exhibit entrepreneurial culture. Conversely, if do not have orientation or environment is pro‐sustainable, these three characteristics may lead low CE adoption. Thus, emphasizes imperative cultivate enhance embrace innovation risk‐taking leverage meet environmental demands, thereby reducing costs time adopting practices. Additionally, it underscores policymakers' pivotal role fostering a pro‐sustainable environment, being critical for SME engagement
