Customer demands for companies to be responsible and environmentally friendly are one of the main reasons why companies of all sizes are increasingly focusing on the circular economy. However, it is not only the customer segment that is driving the transition of companies' business models; increasing demands are also emerging within companies - from employees or in supply and demand chains. How to grasp the topic of circular economy, how to work with it and how to apply it in the company will be the main points of this lecture.

Benefits of the circular economy for businesses
