Although research recognizes that legacy firms struggle with digital transformation, frequently abandoning initiatives, the underlying mechanisms remain a black box. To tackle this issue, we adopt an Attention-based view lens and follow a multiple case study design with five Brazilian legacy firms as a methodological approach. We draw evidence from longitudinal data spanning six years (2016–2021), triangulating archival data from the companies’ annual reports with their websites and formal and informal interviews.

Civic epistemology refers to ’the institutionalised practises by which members of a given society test and deploy knowledge claims used as a basis for making collective choices’ (Jasanoff, 2005: 255). Differences in civic epistemologies seem to be directly related to how scientific climate knowledge – presented in IPCC assessment reports – relates to political decision-making at different scales—national, regional, global.

With the imposed isolation, virtual events became the centre of the political debate, bringing to light strategies and challenges to guarantee basic needs, debated within the scope of the federal legislative and executive branches and civil society.
