The circular economy is now extremely high profile: the volume of discussions, debates and articles on it has almost tripled over the past few years. And yet the rate of global circularity is falling.

Together with industry practitioners we will unpack the underlying drivers and challenges to see how we can adopt practical tools and steps to move the needle on the circular economy. Join us for a community knowledge exchange event organized by experts for experts. It will be organized into 3 sessions:

2. Unpack the underlying data challenges and how digital solutions can help
3. Discuss circular business model transformation beyond compliance
