However, many ports do not seem to have progressed beyond incremental, small-scale sustainable innovations or the support of rather fragmented sustainability initiatives. The challenges are complex, since ports do not only have to reconsider their own core activities but also their role in the supply chain of shippers, to lift themselves out of the linear lock-in. Opportunities are also created, and port authorities and businesses need to embrace circular learning and turn these projects into sustainable business models. This strategic change or refocus requires new insights into innovative governance and business frameworks, the link between strategy and commercially viable business models, systems innovation, intensified stakeholder collaboration and co-creation, altered traffic segments and hinterland focus, amongst others. These Special Issue articles address current CE transition concerns salient to port strategists and managers, such as first strategic changes towards circular ports, building awareness on the importance of sustainability data and available space, and how port authorities can develop circular business models.Economics, finance, business & managementbicsscair qualityBelgiumboundary settingcargo-handling equipmentcase studiescase studycircular economycircular economy ecosystemcircular initiativecircular supply chain managementcoordinated developmentcorporate social responsibilitycorporate sustainabilitydiscrete-event simulationecological perspectiveemission from shipsemission inventoryenergy sourcesenvironmentally friendly fuelsexternal container trucksgreen portsgreen shippingincinerator capacityinland portsmaritime transportmateriality analysismaturityn/apatternsport authorityport citiesport masterplanningport of Amsterdamport-city systemport-related emissionportsprocesspublic valuescale developmentsecondary seaportsship's crew and port pilots qualificationstakeholder managementstakeholdersstevedoresstrategic managementstrategysustainability reportingsustainable portsystem dynamicstraffic flow modelingtransitionTriple Bottom LineEconomics, finance, business & managementHaezendonck Elviraedt1302272Haezendonck ElviraothBOOK9910557532503321Port Strategy for Sustainable Development3026323UNINA
