What’s covered
We all bring a unique perspective to our work in circularity. These perspectives are a result of the jobs we do, the education we have, the communities we are part of, and our life experiences. Our unique perspectives make each of us a valuable part of this transition, but they can also limit our creativity and the possibilities we envision for the future
The keynote stage at Circularity aims to highlight the schools of thought that led to our current understanding of the circular economy. It will inspire attendees to think outside the box to imagine solutions for the transition away from linearity toward a regenerative, waste free and efficient future.
