Webinar: Exploring the Circular Economy
Published on 6 August 2024
The Circular Economy aims to reassess our use of all types of products so that they do not become waste at the end of their life, but are kept in circulation through reuse, repair, remanufacture, and as a very last step, recycling or composting.
The circular model helps people, companies, and society to combat biodiversity loss, waste, and pollution. Organisations that have successfully introduced the concept have optimised resource use, reduced waste, improved their energy efficiency, and lowered their carbon footprint. All of which have also had positive impacts on the financial bottom-line.

Experts estimate that if it were successfully applied in businesses across the globe, it could unlock a potential $4.5 trillion-dollar opportunity.
