In a circular economy, economic activity builds and rebuilds overall systems. The concept recognizes the importance of the economy needing to work effectively at all scales – for large and small businesses, for organizations and individuals, globally and locally.

Transitioning to a circular economy does not only amount to adjustments aimed at reducing the negative impacts of the linear economy. Rather, it represents a systemic shift that builds long-term resilience, generates business and economic opportunities, and provides environmental and societal benefits.

Presentations and panel discussions by

  • Brendan Edgerton, Director of Circular Economy at the World Business Council for Sustainable Development. A global, CEO-led organization of over 200 companies working together to accelerate the transition to a sustainable world.
