Circular economy: Good for business, good for climate

At COP30, concrete examples will be presented by leading international companies that have successfully implemented profitable circular economy business models. 

Join us for an engaging side event at the UN climate negotiations in Belém, Brazil, where we spotlight the real-world impact of the circular economy on business and climate action.

This session will feature concrete stories from leading international companies that have successfully implemented profitable circular economy business models.

Hear firsthand how Brazilian, Indian and Finnish companies have achieved both environmental gains and increased market share. These vivid examples will showcase how innovative business practices not only reduce waste and emissions but also drive new revenue streams and competitive advantage.
