However, to date, very few studies have investigated which digital technologies could enable the circular economy in the built environment. This study specifically focuses on the built environment as one of the largest, most energy- and...journal article 2021

Henry, Marvin (author), Schraven, D.F.J. (author), Bocken, Nancy (author), Frenken, Koen (author), Hekkert, Marko (author), Kirchherr, J.W. (author)Circular economy (CE) and sharing economy (SE) are much discussed concepts but potential links between them have not been examined systematically so far. The concepts’ popularity coupled with a lack of definitional consensus may hinder their potential to advance sustainability transitions. Hence, the first comparative bibliometric study of these...journal article 2021

Tunn, V.S.C. (author), van den Hende, E.A. (author), Bocken, N.M.P. (author), Schoormans, J.P.L. (author)Access-based product-service systems (AB-PSS) are business models that can potentially decouple the satisfaction of consumer needs from environmental impacts. Hence, they have been promoted for the circular economy. Their sustainability potential has not yet been realised because consumer adoption is lagging. Although this challenge has been...journal article 2021

Brown, P.D. (author), Von Daniels, C. (author), Bocken, N.M.P. (author), Balkenende, R. (author)Circular oriented innovation commonly requires collaboration. Yet, to date, circular research lacks empirical investigation into collaborative processes. Collaborative processes are, however, highly researched within strategic management literature, thus offering valuable insights. The purpose of this paper is to investigate, identify and...journal article 2021

Brown, P.D. (author), Bocken, N.M.P. (author), Balkenende, R. (author)Collaborative innovation is necessary to explore and implement circular economy strategies. Yet, empirical investigations into such collaborations are scarce. It is unclear whether the circular context creates differences or represents adaptions within how collaborative innovation is conducted. We draw upon strategic management and open...journal article 2020

Tunn, V.S.C. (author), van den Hende, E.A. (author), Bocken, N.M.P. (author), Schoormans, J.P.L. (author)Access-based product-service systems (AB-PSS) allow consumers to use products for a fee and might support the transition towards a circular economy. This type of business model could decrease negative impacts of consumption by reducing the number of products needed; either by extending products’ lifetimes or by intensifying the use of...journal article 2020
