Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We cordially invite your frontier research in circular economy and sustainable technological innovation for publication in this Special Issue. Of particular interest are the following topics: economics of circular economy, sustainable technology development, innovation for sustainable business and various areas within the scope of this Special Issue. With the business model of circular economy’s impacts on nature and society as well as future economic growth, it is necessary to aggregate the latest case studies and data analyses to shape the industry’s strategies that can minimize harmful effects while expediting the diffusion of innovative ESG practices. As such, a wide range of research participation from academia, corporations, governments and NGOs is required to develop feasible methods and take meaningful actions. This Special Issue will serve as a key platform for such discussions toward sustainable circular economy. Prof. Dr.Guest Editor
