This important and timely Research Handbook explores recent scholarship on industry innovation and demonstrates that the key to a sustainable future is a successful transition to a circular bioeconomy.Global case studies are analysed to illustrate the motivations, factors, ecosystems, and barriers surrounding circular bioeconomies. The authors discuss and evaluate innovations from diverse industries, including agri-food, marine biorefinery, insect farming, and waste management. They also shed light on firm-level innovation to better understand possible solutions for a successful transition into a circular bioeconomy, advancing current thinking in the field. The empirical and theoretical work presented offers new directions for future research into a circular bioeconomy.This Research Handbook is a vital reference for researchers of innovation, circular bioeconomies, climate change and the Sustainable Development Goals. It is also of great interest to industry practitioners across agriculture and manufacturing, who can use the insights presented to guide their own sustainable decision-making.

The transition to a circular economy requires innovation at all levels of society. This insightful Research Handbook is the first comprehensive edited work examining how innovation can contribute to a more circular economy.Illustrating the critical part played by individuals, organisations and system-level actors in the development of circular innovations, this Research Handbook demonstrates that while many firms are working towards a circular economy, most of the innovations are incremental. Hence, the loop is far from closed, and much more radical work remains to be done by both academics and practitioners. The content and structure reflect a multi-level understanding of innovation for a circular economy, with conceptual chapters and strong empirical research with both quantitative and qualitative research designs. Highlighting the urgent need for a circular economy, authors call for more comprehensive and radical innovation efforts to achieve it.This Research Handbook will be an invaluable resource for academics and students of innovation and entrepreneurship, as well as those more broadly interested in the circular economy. Practitioners and policymakers will also find this useful for providing practical examples of how to understand innovation processes and frameworks that contribute to a circular economy.

This book explores how entrepreneurship can be taught through case studies, arguing that entrepreneurship education needs specific cases and case methods to teach students entrepreneurial skills and mindsets. Providing unique perspectives and examples on how case teaching can be applied in entrepreneurship education, the book draws together a wide range of real-life case studies. Informing and inspiring entrepreneurship educators, Part I employs theoretical perspectives and practical procedures related to case teaching in entrepreneurship education. Novel and innovative case methods for entrepreneurship education are explored as well as the theoretical foundations of case-based entrepreneurship education. Part II offers 15 Nordic case studies divided into three main groups relating to becoming an entrepreneur, early-phase venture creation, and acting entrepreneurially in established organisations. Supplemented by online teaching notes, this thought-provoking book will be a valuable resource for entrepreneurship educators at higher education institutions. Questions and activities included in the case studies will also be useful for students with an interest in entrepreneurship.
