O objetivo deste artigo é chamar a atenção uma nova forma de pensar o modelo de negócios: a Economia Circular, que constitui o paradigma do sistema do futuro, em contraste com o modelo linear vigente. Este começa a estar ameaçado devido à disponibilidade limitada de recursos naturais e limites do Planeta em termos de capacidade de assimilação da poluição gerada. A Economia Circular estimula novas práticas de gestão e descortina novas oportunidades criando valor às organizações em harmonia com o meio ambiente. Enquanto fonte de inovação ao nível de produtos, processos e modelo de negócio, e permitindo a redução da procura de recursos naturais com a recuperação de desperdícios e resíduos, este novo paradigma de sustentabilidade abre excelentes perspetivas a serem encaradas pelas empresas como alavanca e motivação para um crescimento com bases sólidas e com futuro, além das vantagens competitivas num mercado dinâmico e global. O método utilizado consiste na revisão bibliográfica. Apesar de o conceito estar presente na literatura é urgente passar à sua implementação prática, com impactos positivos em termos económicos, ambientais e sociais, tal que a ideia que crescimento económico é prejudicial para o ambiente passe a ser definitivamente uma ideia do passado
The purpose of this article is to draw attention to a new way of thinking the business model: the Circular Economy, which is the paradigm of the system of the future, in contrast with the current linear model. The linear model is becoming threatened due to the limited availability of natural resources and the Planet's limits in terms of assimilation capacity of the pollution generated. The Circular Economy stimulates new management practices and reveals new opportunities, creating value to firms in harmony with the environment. As a source of innovation in terms of products, processes and business model, and by reducing the demand for natural resources with the recovery of waste, this new sustainability paradigm opens excellent perspectives to be considered by firms as leverage and motivation for solid and sustained growth, together with competitive advantages in a dynamic global market. The method used is the literature review. Although the concept exists in the literature, it is urgent to implement it in the real world, which would have positive economic, environmental and social impacts, such that the idea that economic growth is inevitably harmful to the environment starts being definitely an idea of the past
