Exploratory multiple case study method and grounded theory were combined to extract the factors affecting the governance of e-waste recycling industry chain from the perspective of collaborative governance. Social Network Analysis was put forward to identify the key factors influencing the cooperative governance of the e-waste recycling industry chain. The study found that: (1) the external environment had an important role in supporting and enhancing the internal and external collaboration capabilities of stakeholders in the e-waste recycling industry chain, thereby affecting the behavior and effects of cooperative governance; (2) corporate social and environmental responsibility awareness, senior management ability and quality, drawing on foreign technology and experience were the main driving force of enterprise internal collaborative governance; (3) environmental and economic sustainable development objectives, government encouragement of manufacturers' dismantling, peer communication and cooperation between enterprises at home and abroad were the engine of external collaboration.
