Spotlight on Circular Economy Interactive Session: Designing Out Waste Together
We’re taking ‘better together’ to the next level in this interactive session led by circular advocate Jodie Bricout at the 2025 Annual Conference.
At its core, circular economy is about designing out waste from systems. Wastes materials yes – but also wasted carbon, wasted infrastructure, wasted potential.
Once we’ve taken stock on how far industry and government have shifted on the circular economy since we last tacked this topic three years ago, we will be working at our tables on where our industry should focus next.
