Sumario:The green transition (GT) is becoming imperative for all economic actors in the business field. In this scenario, the circular economy (CE) is emerging as a new paradigm to address these challenges. However, approaching these novel business models requires that companies reconfigure their resources and organizational capabilities to enable the transition from a traditional linear model to a circular one. The dynamic capabilities (DCs) view provides an exceptional theoretical framework for examining this reality, offering mechanisms that facilitate companies to face these complex processes from the perspective of the research field of business organizations. This chapter aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis of the scientific literature that connects the relationship and impact of DCs on adopting CE models to foster GT in companies. The scientific databases consulted were Web of Science and Scopus, from an initial number of 103 and 60 papers. Once the results were unified, 108 were finally selected for analysis. Bibliometrix tool was used for processing the information, providing results on annual production, and analysis of journals, authors, documents, keywords, etc. These findings will allow us to identify the principal research authors and topics in this area, analyze main conceptual, intellectual, and social structures, and detect future research opportunities
