  • Circular Brighton & Hove and the University of Sussex Business School invite you to a circular economy seminar.

    This seminar will bring together strategic leaders of the Circular Economy and local area practitioners to help the audience understand the basic concepts of Circular Economy and how it is actually being delivered on the ground.   Circular Economy is a relatively new concept to many people and this session will allow both the uninitiated and converted to expand their knowledge of new ways of approaching business and utilisation of the resources around us and to learn about the local delivery of Circular Economy.  We will be referring to the Ellen MacArthur Foundation (EMF) definition of Circular Economy.

    Our speakers will give you practical examples of innovation in action including managing materials ranging from mushrooms for construction, leasing of babywear and sharing of school uniforms, use of wasted bread for ale, sharing resources using bikes and innovative start-up examples from both Sussex and London.
