In this linear-to-circular Masterclass, we will discuss reframing value for your business through the lens of regenerative circularity and how it can unlock new business potential. We will explore how regenerative circularity can move your business from efficiency thinking or value capture to value creation. We won’t stay theoretical. Together, we will take a real example from one of the participating companies and work it live so ideas meet reality. You’ll be able to draw your own conclusions on how circularity—and regenerative circularity—could apply to your specific context, and what ripple effects it may create across products, operations, leadership, partnerships, and ecosystems. This is for pioneers and leaders eager to discover the power of circularity—not just toward better practices, but toward business models that have the power to shift entire industries.

What You Will Learn

• How circularity supports sustainability and business strategy

• The difference between value protection, value capture, and value creation when using regenerative circularity

• Where your company stands—and what could come next

• How to use ecosystem leverage in real business terms

• What circularity changes across products, processes, people, and positioning

Join our 4-hour executive workshop to explore how regenerative circularity can transform your value chain—live, real-world, and tailored to your business.
