Circular Glasgow is an initiative of Glasgow Chamber of Commerce. Working alongside key partners Zero Waste Scotland and Glasgow City Council, Circular Glasgow offers your business, no matter the size, a powerful proposition to help lead the way through innovation, design thinking and new circular business models.
By adopting circular economy strategies across your product or service industry, you can create a competitive advantage for your target market and tomorrow’s consumers. Companies and organisations are already experiencing the multiple benefits of circular strategies and will reap the rewards for years to come.
We are living in increasingly turbulent times and never has the need to embrace and maximise innovation and new technologies been more important. The good news is that the circular economy is one of the biggest means of stopping the temperature rising. A circular economy also presents a significant opportunity and competitive advantage for businesses – of all sizes.
Circularity brings innovation. It brings growth and new markets, trust and profitability. Globally, this opportunity is valued at $4.5 trillion by 2030.
In their Circular Economy report, featuring case studies from Circular Glasgow, British Chamber of Commerce underlines the real benefits to business of a circular economy, including maximising the value of waste streams and reduced costs.
The report says a successful circular economy is one “which creates the conditions where economic growth and environmental benefits are achieved in parallel”.
Leveraging nine years of Circular Glasgow’s leadership in circular innovation, this strategic initiative goes beyond conventional training to equip leaders with the critical insights and practical strategies required to profit from a circular economy.
The programme includes an immersive two-day visit to pioneering circular city, Amsterdam where you will observe innovative circular business models first-hand.
Our Circular Glasgow Network aims to bring together entrepreneurs, innovators and circular economy enthusiasts from across the city to connect, build and share their knowledge of a circular economy and its role in reaching net-zero targets.
Not only will joining the Network allow you to meet other businesses across the city to connect and share ideas on climate action, but we'll be organising regular events and opportunities to help build your knowledge.
