A Economia adotada de uma forma global, utilizando modelos de negócio baseados na linearidade (extração de recursos, consumo e descarte), aliada à escassez desses mesmos recursos e às alterações climáticas atuais, está a ser alvo de uma alteração profunda nas organizações empresariais. Torna-se urgente, a inclusão de modelos conceptuais, alicerçados numa visão a médio e a longo prazo, com vista à transformação dessa abordagem clássica, isto é, de uma economia linear para um modelo circular. Este trabalho é centrado no setor agroalimentar sendo o Pensamento Sistémico um dos princípios a sublinhar, aliado à cadeia de valor dos produtos e serviços agroalimentares. Considerando os desafios e oportunidades da transição do modelo de Economia Linear para o modelo de Economia Circular, pretende-se desenvolver uma abordagem
conceptual de um modelo de atuação empresarial – que inclua as ferramentas aplicadas numa visão holística ao ciclo de vidas das empresas e inerentes produtos e serviços. O principal contribuo deste trabalho é a conceção de um modelo exploratório em linha com os objetivos de desenvolvimento sustentável, no sentido de otimizar processos e dinâmicas empresariais a nível ambiental, económico e social, os três vetores da sustentabilidade.
Abstract The economy adopted globally using business models based on linearity (resource extraction, consumption, and disposal), combined with the scarcity of these same resources and current climate change, is undergoing a profound change in business organizations to apply conceptual models based on a medium and long-term vision, with a view to transforming this classical approach, that is, from a linear to a circular model. This work is centered on the agri-food sector and Systemic Thinking is one of the principles to be highlighted, together with the value chain of agri-food products and services. Considering the challenges and opportunities of the transition from the Linear Economy model to the Circular Economy model, it is intended to develop a conceptual approach to a business performance model - which includes the tools applied in a holistic view to the life cycle of companies and inherent products and services. The main contribution of this work is the conception of an exploratory model in line with the objectives of sustainable development, to optimize business processes and dynamics at an environmental, economic, and social level, the three vectors of sustainability.
