BCG understands Circular Economy as the move from a linear to a circular value chain, including the different steps from raw materials/input, design, production, use through new business models and collection of reusable resources. A good way to understand BCG's framework to circularity is depicted in this joint publication released as earlier as 2018 jointly with the WBCSD: The new big circle: Achieving growth and business model innovation through circular economy implementation.
