“…The CE can generate practicality (FT02), social and environmental responsibility (FT03), integrity, teamwork, commitment, austerity, resilience, predictability (FT01, FT04, FT08), efficiency in operations (FT04, FT05, FT15), construction of better cooperative and contributory relationships, match between those who have and those who are looking for something, efficient use of resources in favor of a more balanced and sustainable value chain (FT04), compliance (FT02, FT04), constant search for excellence, dynamism and adaptability (FT04), creating sustainable connections and relationships (FT04), ensuring cradle‐to‐cradle supply chain (FT05), cost reduction (FT05, FT10, FT15), increased traceability and compliance (FT05, FT10, FT15), prioritization of freshness and practicality (FT01, FT06, FT09, FT12, FT13), shorter cycles (FT01, FT12, FT13), process optimization (FT04, FT06, FT12, FT13), commitment (FT06), human enhancement (FT01, FT03, FT08), generation of engagement (FT10), purchase at a fair price (FT01, FT09, FT11), water saving (FT12), customization (FT12, FT13, FT15), incentive to producing for yourself (FT13), reduction of intermediaries (FT01, FT13), more durable products (FT13), incentive to collaborative processes (FT15), identification of bottlenecks in processes (FT15), and evidence of compliance and non‐compliance (FT15). Therefore, it is possible to show a few of the impacts of industry 4.0 on environmental responsibility, as highlighted by Kazancoglu et al, (2021).…”

“…This article focuses on the analysis of CE innovations and assumptions adopted by foodtech startups. Other authors have already investigated this theme in other contexts and dimensions of analysis, such as the impacts of industry 4.0 on environmental responsibility (Kazancoglu et al, 2021), the innovation strategy in companies that use bamboo as their main raw material (Borowski, 2021), in circular supply chain governance (Schultz et al, 2021), inter‐organizational collaboration in reverse logistics (Cricelli et al, 2021), creative groups and CE (Sierra‐Pérez et al, 2021), innovation for sustainable development (Lanhoso & Coelho, 2021), barriers of circular supply chain for sustainability (Kazancoglu et al, 2020), sustainability of bio‐based transformation (Biber‐Freudenberger et al, 2020), and consumer engagement in the CE (Camacho‐Otero et al, 2019).…”

This work adopts sustainable entrepreneurship as its scope of analysis, focusing on sustainable success through startups with operational excellence, technological innovation (TI) and whose business model aligns with the assumptions of circular economy (CE). By applying certain characteristics of the natural resource‐based view (NRBV) in the context of foodtech startups, this study assesses both TIs and CE assumptions adopted by Brazilian foodtech startups. We interviewed managers and owners of foodtech companies operating in the Brazilian economy. Thus, this study relates to CE business models, how well companies manage natural resources, and the influence of TI in promoting CE. After conducting an exploratory case study in Brazil with 15 startups, in addition to exploring the adequacy of four future research proposals, this article suggests that: (a) among the foodtech startups studied, the companies that are most disruptive and innovative also demonstrate a more efficient and optimized management of natural resources; (b) based on these units of analysis, a less proactive CE tends to compete with companies in the traditional segment of operation, not differing in terms of products and services offered to society, thus generating only a small contribution to sustainable development; (c) while our study shows that NRBV illustrates a relevant theoretical framework to confirm the progress of the CE supported by TI, the integration of these theoretical constructs in a startup proves to be original and unprecedented.

“…Monitoring efficient food traceability and transparency issues are key aspects to consider in the whole FSC to ensure food quality, food safety and reduce food loss (Kayikci et al, 2020; Kazancoglu, Sezer, et al, 2021). Food loss refers to reduced food quantity or quality due to inadequate post‐harvest systems and infrastructural capacity (FAO, 2011).…”

Rapid and dynamic changes in environment, technologies, consumer behavior, policy making, and climate are putting extra pressure to food supply chain, especially in terms of efficiently manage food security, food surplus, food loss, and waste. These changes directly affect food supply chain negatively. Thus, transition into more circular approach for green business growth in food supply chains is a necessity. One way to reduce this negativity is to ensure the share of information along the chain. With this context, sharing information and knowledge among the food supply chain can facilitate practices from a circularity and green perspectives. Hence, this research focuses on understanding and revealing knowledge‐sharing networks challenges, barriers, and benefits across every food supply chain layer, presenting tangible contributions to improve traceability in circularity perspectives with refuse, rethink, reduce, reuse, repair, refurbish, remanufacture, repurpose, recycle, and recover challenges. Therefore, and to provide a green business growth, this study examines the practice of knowledge sharing among real‐life industry food stakeholders in the meat sector regarding their dimensions, what type of knowledge is shared and whether there are differences among specific groups of food stakeholders for the knowledge sharing. The aim of this research is to generate a validated conceptual framework to reveal how information technologies contributes to a more efficient knowledge sharing practices, hence, to impact the enhancement of efficient circular food supply chains for green business growth.

“…The country’s economic digital shift has now become apparent ( Mihelj and Jiménez-Martínez, 2021 ). From this standpoint, determining the overall impact of digital marketing on the development of new business models as well as human and organizational behaviors becomes critical ( Kazancoglu et al, 2021 ). In light of the contemporary digital problems, it is also critical to establish economic and business performance factors.…”

Digital technology has gained momentum in the recent decade, with its relationships with digital entrepreneurship, digital economies, digital social interaction, green economies, etc. These have changed the perspective of business and hence digitalized the strategic policies through blockchains. The current study aims to identify such benefits that have changed the day-to-day life processes and procedures for carrying out different tasks due to the convenience of adopting digital technology. Those benefits have been classified as transparency, centralization, and access to new markets for the organizations considering their consequences, especially when using digital technology. When processes are taking place online, there are fair chances of hiding knowledge about certain products or procedures to gain particular benefits. Hence, this study has considered the moderating role of product knowledge hiding while interacting online. This study is a quantitative post-positivist cross-sectional study that has followed a survey technique for data collection. The population used in this study is the managerial staff of the telecom sector in the mainland in China. The sample size used in this study is 358. The software used in this study is Smart-PLS 3.3. The technique used in this study for data analysis is structural equation modeling with measurement modeling. The findings of this study show that digital technology has led to many benefits for organizations like centralization, access to the new markets, and transparency, which have been made possible remotely only because of the use of digital technology in business operations. However, the moderating role of product knowledge hiding has been found significant only for transparency. This research paper highlights the important benefits of the use of technological use in the corporate world. Also, it contributes to expanding the network of knowledge hiding, addressing the moderation of product knowledge hiding, and extending the known consequences of digital technology influencing knowledge hiding.
