Circular Business Models: Why and How Companies Can Innovate and Transform

Why are companies adopting circular business models, and what benefits do they gain? How can organizations effectively implement and scale circular strategies?

Companies are rebuilding revenue models around circularity—driven by regulatory requirements, customer demand for sustainable products, and opportunities to capture value from repair, reuse, and secondary markets. This session explores at an advanced level how organizations are operationalizing this shift—from product‑as‑a‑service and reuse systems to repair, refurbishment, and secondary‑market solutions.

Speakers will share the operational, financial, and partnership approaches that are helping circular models succeed, along with the design and data foundations required to scale. Participants will leave with insights into which models may fit your organization and the practical steps needed to move from ambition to implementation.

Advanced Perspectives sessions are open to all. The content goes deep, catering to those with 5+ years in a decision making role on the topic. This session is sponsored by EY. Sponsored breakouts are sponsor-created and hosted sessions, created independently by the sponsor without input from Trellis.
