🌀 Why Circular Economy?

The circular economy is more than just a buzzword; it's a framework for redefining how products are designed, manufactured, used, and ultimately recovered. From fashion and food to packaging and electronics, circular thinking is a critical strategy for reducing waste at scale.
This event is your chance to hear from those making waves in this field, both in New York City and beyond.

🎤 Featured Speakers (more to be announced!):

• Brooklyn Creative Reuse: Creative reuse and circularity in action
• Brooklyn Solar Works: Renewable energy and building circular systems in NYC
• Anna Sacks: An NYC waste expert advocating for waste legislation and raising awareness on social media
• Big Reuse: Supporting community initiatives that minimize waste and foster a greener future
• BK Rot: NYC's first bike-powered food waste hauling and composting service

🤝 Who Should Attend?

• Sustainability professionals and advocates
• Corporate sustainability teams
• Creatives, founders, and entrepreneurs
• Community members eager to learn and connect
• Anyone curious about practical applications of the circular economy
