With COVID still rampant other news is subdued, but circular economy is ever more in focus as investment in infrastructure - the European Green Deal for example - is going to change the pace for both researchers and for business. As we look towards recovery and finally engaging fully with the climate emergency it seems the right time to ask if today's companies can make the change.
Our upcoming 2nd webinar of the season, hosted by IS4CE and Katie Whalen from “Getting In The Loop”, has contributions from Safiya Ahmad, Anna Barford and Sara Fallah around the theme “Circular transitions: Will incumbent companies make it?” In this seminar, we will hear from researchers working with incumbent firms to learn about the approaches companies are currently taking.
*The Zoom link is available in the members area (top menu once logged in) for both affiliates and full members on the day. A recording of the webinar will be made archived for full members. The date of this webinar is Dec 2nd 16.30 CET
Remember affiliate membership is free.
We look forward to seeing you then.
Sara Fallahi is a senior researcher at the Research Institute of Sweden (RISE) where she focuses on circular economy and digital innovation
