As global industries grapple with environmental degradation, resource scarcity, and rising regulatory demands, the circular economy has emerged as a strategic response to build regenerative, resilient, and profitable businesses. The Circular Economy Business Strategies and Management course equips professionals with the essential skills and tools to move beyond the linear “take-make-dispose” model toward sustainable, circular systems.
Participants will explore how to embed circular principles across product design, business models, supply chains, and performance metrics — helping companies remain competitive while contributing to global sustainability goals like Vision 2030, Net Zero, and the SDGs.
