The Academic Journal Emerald Insight<\/em> analyses the case of Ecobnb in a research paper about Circular Economy and Smart Tourism.<\/h2>\n

Recently, a research paper called\u00a0\u201cCircular economy business model for smart tourism: the case of Ecobnb\u201d<\/strong> was published in the journal Emerald Insight<\/em><\/strong><\/a>. It presents the case of Ecobnb<\/strong> in the context of business models of Circular Economy<\/a> for smart tourism.<\/p>\n

The authors of the article are Caterina Malandungo, Pasquale Del Vecchio and Giuseppina Passiante \u2013 from the University of Salento, Lecce \u2013 in partnership with Georgia Sakka \u2013 from the University of Nicosia, Cyprus.<\/p>\n

Tourism is facing uncertainty amid the Covid-19 pandemic. <\/strong>And in this context, the planning of new strategies <\/strong>and\u00a0models of tourism management<\/strong> becomes key to restart after lockdown<\/strong>. This must also combine with\u00a0innovative<\/strong> and sustainable<\/strong> approaches<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The study demonstrates that Circular Economy and Smart Tourism\u00a0are essential\u00a0<\/strong>to best manage the complexity of the current and future situation. In particular, they will have an increasingly central role in the rebuilding and development of tourism in the post-pandemic era<\/strong>. In fact, they could be the\u00a0driving force<\/strong> to lead tourism towards new and thriving scenarios.<\/p>\n

This must also blend with new strategies of\u00a0tourism management<\/strong> and the creation of value<\/strong> and sustainability<\/strong>\u00a0for tourism companies<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Circular Economy and Smart Tourism<\/h2>\n

\"circular<\/p>\n

What Exactly are Circular Economy and Smart Tourism?<\/h3>\n

The article defines\u00a0a Circular Economy<\/strong><\/a> as an economic system that ensures its own sustainability<\/strong>.\u00a0On the other hand,\u00a0Smart Tourism<\/strong> refers to a kind of tourism that implies the use of information and communication technology<\/strong> for the improvement of the tourism industry.<\/p>\n

The authors researched how these two concepts are inextricably intermingled with the implementation of sustainability<\/strong> in the field of tourism. Sustainability in this case is intended as\u00a0social, economic, and environmental<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

As the study demonstrates, the combination of sustainability with the former principles can lead to success in terms of\u00a0economic growth <\/strong>and social well-being<\/strong>. And in this context, precisely the example of Ecobn is analysed.<\/p>\n

Ecobnb as a Succesful Example of Circular Economy and Smart Tourism<\/h3>\n
\"ecobnb
Main Sustainability Criteria According to Ecobnb<\/div><\/div>\n

The case of the Ecobnb community<\/strong> is analysed on Emerald Insight<\/em> as evidence of the successful application<\/strong> of all these paradigms. These very approaches translate into the dynamics of continuous innovation<\/a> in the business model and processes of value creation.<\/p>\n

The research paper defines Ecobnb<\/strong><\/a> as \u201can innovative network-based company that promotes the offering of hospitality following the principles of sustainability and circular economy<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n

The Key Points of the Research Paper<\/h2>\n

\"article<\/p>\n

What are the key points of the research paper on\u00a0Emerald Insight<\/em>?<\/p>\n

Purpose<\/h3>\n

The paper provides new insights into the process of value creation and business model innovation.<\/p>\n

Methodological Approach<\/h3>\n

It includes\u00a0a qualitative and exploratory\u00a0<\/strong>approach.\u00a0In particular, data refers to the integration of web-based desk analysis, interviews and social big data analytics.<\/p>\n

Findings: practical and social implications<\/h3>\n

First, the paper proves that smart tourism and circular economy can represent two important lenses for driving tourism companies and destinations toward more sustainable and smarter value creation processes.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thus, it presents\u00a0some practical implications<\/strong>. These refer to the innovation of tourism management and transition of the business models towards a circular configuration.<\/p>\n

The ultimate goal of the article is to boost awareness about the culture of sustainability in tourism management. And this is the most important social implication<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Originality and Value<\/h3>\n

The study provides an original contribution<\/strong> to the debate on tourism.<\/p>\n

In fact, it highlights that especially during these times of pandemics we need a strong innovation in traditional models of management.<\/p>\n

It also underlines that to meet the need for innovation, companies should rely on the integration<\/strong>\u00a0of digital technologies<\/strong> and sustainable approaches<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\"reading<\/p>\n

In conclusion, the article on Emerald Insight<\/em>\u00a0represents an important viewpoint in the current debate on smart-tourism and circular economy<\/strong>. We need new business models, which will be able to\u00a0strengthen and innovate<\/strong>\u00a0the whole post-pandemic tourism industry.<\/p>\n

If on the one hand lock-down has changed forever our perception of tourist infrastructures<\/a>, it is also true that the principles which the study highlights could be significant not only in the perspective of a post-Covid-19 restart but also in the perspective of a future improvement of tourist facilities and destination management<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

As it follows, innovation and improvement must always take place in an increasingly\u00a0smart, \u201ccircular\u201d and, above all, sustainable context.<\/strong><\/p>\n
