Join the Centre for Natural Products and Medical Cannabis for a free webinar on Tuesday, November 9.
The benefits from a circular economy can reach beyond a goal of global environmental stewardship. Developing a circular economy can produce substantial savings in material costs. A circular economy can also generate increased income. To achieve this, however, true innovation is needed – more than just reducing waste and increasing recycling. It demands redesign and re-evaluation of raw materials, products, production systems, value chains, and business models.
This webinar will discuss a circular economy in the natural products and cannabis sectors, examining the benefits and challenges. We’ll also hear first-hand from innovative companies that are contributing to the circular economy in their fields on how to profit and avoid the pitfalls.
