Growth Strategy of Circular Startups

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Circular startups (CSUs) play a crucial role in the circular transition by developing circular business models (CBMs) that minimise resource use and narrow material and energy loops. However, empirical research on how CBMs shape growth strategies and how ecosystems enable or constrain scaling remains limited.
