The article analyses how technologies from Industry 4.0 may step up circular economy initiatives inside organizations to provide a sustainable digital transformation. The authors present advances found in the literature towards convergencies between circular economy and digital transformation, and also point out the main challenges and restraints that need to be overcome through more scientific studies, or through the best practices inside the organizational environment. This article also presents an integration between the principles and fundamentals from circular economy and the main technologies from Industry 4.0 using the framework ReSOLVE. Thus, it aims to show how technological resources may cooperate in reaching a circular economy inside organizations.
