The supply chain decisions your company makes today are locking in costs, risks, and waste that circularity is specifically designed to eliminate. Linear systems were built for a different era, and the assumptions underneath them, about material availability, waste disposal, and value recovery, are increasingly working against you. This session makes the case for what a future-ready supply chain actually looks like, where circular design is not a constraint but a source of competitive advantage.

Supply chain professionals are uniquely positioned to lead this transition. Whether you are new to circular thinking or deep into implementation, you will leave with sharper framing, a stronger business case, and practical approaches you can put to work immediately. This session covers:

·       What structurally separates circular from conventional supply chains

·       The economic case, and how to make it land with leadership

·       How circularity connects to, and differs from, broader sustainability efforts

·       Why supply chain is the function best positioned to drive this shift

·       The barriers that stall scaling, and how to get ahead of them
