Abstract

The concept of eco-innovation has become increasingly popular as the industrial industry should move toward sustainability. For businesses to establish core competences in the circular economy model, eco-innovation strategies are crucial components. Academicians are now studying the information behind these corporate decisions, with a growing body of work on the topic. The main goal of the study is to reveal and describe the development and interest in the topic of ecological and environmental innovations through bibliometric analysis. The bibliometric analysis is used to reveal the prevailing trends in the fields of sustainability, sustainable development, green economy, and eco-innovations. The fundamental techniques of comparison, induction, synthesis, analysis, and deduction are applied. In addition, the authors focused on bibliometric analysis, as it allows the processing of huge amounts of data and the creation of scientific maps. The development process in various countries around the world is diverse. Environmental and ecological innovations appear to present a substantial challenge. The prioritisation of the circular economy is also observable in scientific publications and in the academic sphere. Bibliometric analysis reveals the increasing popularity of the circular economy and ecoinnovations among authors, indicating the unavoidable need to tackle a more sustainable approach to economic and production activities.
