One of the ways to practice sustainability is by implementing Circular Economy principles. And no – it is not only about the waste. It is also about how can we create better: starting from the very beginning – design & how can we offer better: re-thinking our business models.
Did you know, that you can influence up to 80 % of the environmental impact of your idea/product at the design stage? Hence – you can significantly reduce it!
In this workshop, learn more about what Circular Economy is in its essence, find out some different circular principles, and how can they be applied when creating or improving a design or a business model.
