Circular Economy Symposium (CES)

Global economy has relied on intertwined supply chains supported by unsustainable natural resources for decades. We have now understood and realized the potential of CE due to its restorative process and design. In the world of finite resources, innovative circular solutions to linear problems can only offer path to reinvent economy in interest of whole ecosystem. To seize the potential of CE, public and private organizations are extensively exploring options and adopting systemic approaches for transitioning into circular business models.

Today India is considered as one of the largest investment destination for ensuring tangible and transformative change across the recycling and circular economy value chain.

The symposium is driven by its central theme of “Circular Economy Solutions and Global Innovative Practices” and will focus on delivering best practices and models from across the globe illustrating how circularity in businesses can prove to be a sound strategy in Indian context too, to facilitate access to new markets, and to drive innovative solutions and saving costs.
