Credits
2 op
Objective
The goal is for the participants to understand the difference between traditional linear economy and circular economy. Furthermore, the participants must anchor and concretize their understanding in a real or fictitious own business model that is based on circular flows.
Content
Circular economy, which partially decouples economic growth from resource use, is a hot potato in both politics and business today. Some think that the EU's goals for the green transition are just stupid. Others invest heavily in being ahead of the curve as markets restructure. There are threats here, but also great opportunities for both large and small players. In this course, we will look at how a circular business logic differs from a traditional, linear one. Furthermore, the participants must concretize this in exercises around their own industry or business.
How does a circular economy differ from a linear economy?
Why do we urgently need to create circular circuits?
Circular Business Canvas as a tool.
