Redesigning the economy: the power of data and digital technologies

The circular economy is about more than making incremental improvements — it’s about transformative change. It requires a whole system shift from a take, make, waste linear economy to a circular economy designed to eliminate waste and pollution, circulate products and materials, and regenerate nature.

But what does it take to redesign an entire economic system? In this episode, we look at the role of data and digital technologies, and explore the innovations disrupting the status quo and transforming the way producers, retailers, and customers interact with one another.

Join us as we travel to Prague and London to hear from circular economy trailblazers who are using digital technologies to implement and scale circular economy solutions.

The Circular Economy Show is a monthly discussion and debate around how we can move from a linear take-make-waste economy towards a circular economy. In each episode, our hosts are joined by inspiring businesses, policymakers, academics, and designers to discuss how circular economy solutions are being scaled, at speed, to create long-term economic growth and tackle global challenges including climate change and pollution.
