Abstract
As a response to the need for the implementation of circular economy (CE) inside their business models, companies found themselves facing trade-offs between opting for short-term or long-term benefits that are required from a full-scale implementation of CE. Especially through times of uncertainty and instability, firms need to recognize and acknowledge different routes and quickly move forward to the one that best fits their necessities and resource availability. This work identifies collaboration activities across the supply chain and the implementation of Industry 4.0 enabling technologies in the dynamics that characterize such relations as the characteristics that explain corporate responsiveness to pressures to improve environmental performance. Data were collected through a questionnaire-based survey of 303 Italian companies. The quantitative analysis carried on explores the relationship between circular performance and collaborative innovation practices by delving in the role that digitalization plays in moderating this relationship. This analysis uses regression analysis on three models designed to test the relation between the dependent variable (circular performance) and collaborative innovation. The moderating role of digitalization on this relationship is also explored. The models studied show that collaborative innovation dyamics deployed across the supply chain positively affect the circular performance of companies in the study and digitalization (considered as the implementation of Industry 4.0 technologies) helps positively moderate the relation between collaborative innovation and circular performances.
