As the global UN Plastics Treaty enters the final stages of negotiations, organizations must rethink single-use plastics, evaluate how to operationalize circularity, and irrevocably shift business models. Companies must go beyond processes and risk management to capitalize on the market opportunity of the circular economy.

In this exclusive webcast, held the day after the conclusion of the latest treaty negotiations, or INC-4, a panel of experts from business, technology, and civil society will discuss what happened there and the implications for packaging suppliers and brands.

Among the things you’ll learn:

The practical implications of INC-4 based on a real-time report-out of the event.
How recycling, reuse and regeneration scenarios impact the ways companies can comply with packaging regulation, operate profitably, and reduce waste.
The business opportunity to end plastic pollution and drive systemic change.

As packaging — and plastics in general — continue to grow as a hot-button issue, this timely webcast will provide the insight and inspiration companies need to move toward more circular models.

Moderator:

Joel Makower, Chairman and Co-founder, GreenBiz Group

Speakers:

Stephen Jamieson, Global Head of Circular Economy Solutions, SAP
Sarah Perreard, Co-CEO & Stakeholder Engagement Lead, Earth Action
Yoni Shiran, Partner, SYSTEMIQ
