Inger Andersen, Executive Director, UNEP, Jonquil Hackenberg, CEO, Ellen MacArthur Foundation, and Danielle Holly, Executive Lead - North America, Ellen MacArthur Foundation on the state of the Circular Economy in North America and around the world – as well as the work the Foundation is doing with its network of leaders.

The Digital Transformation and the Urgency of Circularity

At this moment of unprecedented digital transformation – including the adoption of AI and the related increasing need for energy and critical minerals to scale and run our infrastructure – we will be joined by experts for a conversation about how the circular economy can unlock economic and competitive advantage, secure supply chains, and help sustain technological advancements.

Retail: The Delight of Circular Solutions

A discussion, using circular design for food as a core example, exploring ways that the retail system is shifting to encourage spending in the circular economy as the default choice for customers. How can we leverage tools such as product design, payment models, and marketing to continue these trends?
