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.
