日本のGX文脈において
中国の事例だが、日本の製造業におけるDXとサーキュラーエコノミー統合の示唆に富む。特に、ステークホルダー圧力がイノベーション能力とCE実装の関係を強化する点は、日本企業のサプライチェーン対応や開示圧力の高まりを踏まえると参考になる。
In the global GX context
While focused on China, this research offers insights for global electronics supply chains on leveraging digital knowledge systems and green investment to advance circular economy goals. The moderating role of stakeholder pressure aligns with global trends in mandatory sustainability disclosure and due diligence requirements, suggesting that external pressure can amplify the impact of innovation capabilities on circularity.

📄 Abstract（原文）
Environmental issues in China are escalating due to its rapid growing electronics manufacturing industry. These issues include electronic waste, depletion of resources, and carbon emission. Effective circular economy (CE) operationalization is required to achieve national sustainability as proposed in the Made in China 2025 project and 2060 carbon neutrality commitment. . However, many companies struggle to implement CE activities due to limited innovation potential and knowledge fragmentation. Drawing on the Resource-Based View (RBV) and the Knowledge-Based View (KBV), this study examines how digital knowledge management systems (DKMS), open innovation practices (OIP), and green investment strategies (GIS) on circular innovation capability (CIC) that subsequently facilitates CE implementation (CEI). It also investigates the moderating effect of the stakeholder pressure (SP) on the CIC-CEI relationship. Using a quantitative cross-sectional research, data was collected from 327 employees in Chinese electronics manufacturing companies. It was analyzed using the Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM) in Smart-PLS. The findings show that DKMS, OIP, and GIS significantly enhance CIC, which in turn strongly predicts CEI. Also, the SP positively moderates the CIC-CEI relation, which demonstrates that the impact of the innovation capability is enhanced under high institutional and market pressure. These results highlight that digitalisation, joint innovation, and sustainability-driven financial policies are crucial for a successful CE transition. The findings contribute to the theoretical knowledge of capability formation in circular transformation and offers actionable implications for the stakeholders aiming to develop a resource-efficient, innovation-driven, and environmentally friendly electronics industry in China.
