SUMMARY:Circularity Summit 2025
DESCRIPTION:The Circular Economy is more than a response to environmental challenges—it’s a transformative vision for the future of business and society. By embracing new ways of designing business and society\, circularity addresses critical issues like material scarcity\, and resource depletion to avoid waste to landfill\, maximize use\, and create products that last long and can be used several times. \nSwitzerland (and Zurich) is positioning itself at the forefront of the circular transition. However\, challenges such as supply chain vulnerabilities\, evolving regulations\, and shifting societal expectations require collective action. The Circularity Summit 2025 in Zurich brought together thought leaders\, pioneering businesses\, and policymakers to explore how circular strategies can strengthen industries\, enhance resource efficiency\, and build a more sustainable future. \nWe examined the topic from three key perspectives: products\, business models\, and consumers: \n\nHow can companies redesign their business models to reduce waste and optimise resource use while remaining competitive?\nHow can product and service design prioritise durability\, repairability\, and recyclability?\nWhat policies or incentives effectively accelerate the adoption of circular economy principles?\nWhich industries stand to benefit most from circular practices\, and what challenges are unique to their sectors?\nHow can businesses and policymakers support consumers in adopting circular behaviors?\nWhat tools and metrics are needed to measure and communicate circularity’s impact?\n\n\n\nBreakout Sessions: \nCircular Products \nHow are you designing products that extend life cycles\, minimise waste\, and keep materials in continuous use? This session explored strategies for durability\, modularity\, and recyclability\, along with innovative end-of-life solutions that close material loops. \nCircular Business \nRethinking business models is essential to shifting from a linear to a circular economy\, but what strategies enable this transition? This discussion explored service-based approaches\, digital tools\, and reverse logistics that help businesses enhance resource efficiency\, unlock new value\, and build long-term resilience. \nConsumer Circularity \nConsumers play a crucial role in making circular systems work\, but how can businesses encourage and support more sustainable behaviours? This discussion explored how companies can design products\, software\, and solutions that actively enable their customers to participate in circularity. \nFocus of Panel Discussion: \nCreating a truly circular economy requires collaboration across industries\, from product design to business operations and consumer engagement. This panel brought together experts to discuss practical strategies\, challenges\, and opportunities for embedding circularity at every stage of the value chain\, ensuring materials remain in use and waste is minimized.

SUMMARY:Scope 3 Kick Off Event - The inescapable giant in reaching net zero
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to kick off our Scope 3 Event Series with our Partner\, Siemens! \nWith our Scope 3 Event Series\, we aim to address the significant challenges companies face in achieving net zero along their entire value chain (Scope 3). In this first event\, we want to give a general overview of what Scope 3 emissions are\, discuss the challenges in tackling them\, and their importance in the bigger scheme of things to reach the global decarbonization targets. \nA company’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are distinguished between different categories\, or so-called “scopes” – Scope 1\, Scope 2 and Scope 3. While Scope 1 emissions are caused directly by a company through its operating activities\, Scope 2 emissions are generated indirectly through the purchase of electricity\, for example\, for cooling or heating buildings. Scope 3 emissions\, on the other hand\, are emissions that are not directly associated with the company but that the company is still indirectly responsible for\, up and down its value chain. And this is where it gets tricky! \nScope 3 emissions could\, for example\, stem from buying products from its suppliers\, from its products when customers use them or from the operations of a company’s investments and they are divided into 15 categories as laid out by the Greenhouse Gas Protocol (pages 34-37). \nThese emissions are not only the most difficult to account for\, but also the most important to tackle. In terms of emissions\, Scope 3 is almost always where a company has the largest footprint. Only by reducing emissions along the entire value chain (up- and downstream)\, can a company truly achieve net zero emissions. \nBreak-out Discussions will be: \n\nWorking with suppliers\, especially SMEs\nHow to ensure data is reliable\nComplying with regulation\nCost – Who pays for the transition?\nBuy-in from Management and employees\n\n–
