Abstract

This study aimed to analyze the scientific production that deals with Circular Economy Business Models (CEBM) published from 2018 to 2022. The analysis aims to describe the configurations of CEBM present in case studies published in this period. The research question is “How are the CEBMs present in case studies published in the last five years (2018-2022) configured?”. To answer the research question, a Systemic Literature Review (SLR) was carried out using the Methodi Ordinatio. From keywords, strings were defined (business model, circular economy, Circular Business Models, circular economy), searches were carried out in Google Scholar, SciELO and Web of Science databases. The initial search identified 267 publications, from which the ten most relevant that contributed with 21 cases on CEBM were selected. The analyzed cases described how circular businesses are configured, presenting information about the location of the business, market sector, typology, maturity level and values. The cases highlight the business contributions to sustainability, whether related to the environmental, economic and/or social pillars. This research theoretically contributes to the literature on CEBM, promotes guidance to companies by indicating possibilities for applying Circular Economy principles in their businesses, pedagogically helps students to understand them.
