Past Event | Circular Economy Innovation Masterclass
Throwback on an immersive workshop organised by the French Chamber of Commerce in Singapore in partnership with The Matcha Initiative, exploring how to integrate circularity, a key concept in sustainability, into your business strategy.
Many thanks to Marisa Agrasut and Dr. Anna Itkin, Managing Partners at The Inceptery - for facilitating this engaging workshop. While recycling is important, the masterclass emphasized the circular economy as a more comprehensive approach.
The discussion covered the growing significance of circularity across industries. Experts explained how a circular economy goes beyond trends and is poised to fundamentally reshape how we operate in a resource-constrained world with environmentally conscious consumers.
The masterclass offered insights into:
-
Core Circular Economy Concepts: Attendees gained a foundational understanding of the circular economy and its principles.
-
Emerging Business Models: Participants learned about innovative business models that embrace circularity.
-
Life Cycle Thinking: The session explored the life cycle approach to products and how to conduct a life cycle assessment.
-
Shifting from Linear to Circular: The discussion addressed the implications and practicalities of transitioning from a linear model to a circular one.
The overall message was clear: By working together, businesses can adopt circular practices and build a more sustainable future. While recycling remains a valuable tool, the circular economy offers a broader framework for achieving true sustainability.
This event was organised as part of the initiative “Circularity, 3-days to Rethink, Reuse and Recycle”, during the Joint Year of Sustainability France Singapore (JYOS) and in conjunction with the CleanEnviro Summit in Singapore from 19 to 21 June 2024.
