Join us for an insightful webinar exploring how circular economy principles can transform industries like healthcare – reducing waste, cutting costs, and enhancing sustainability. Learn about real-world solutions, innovative strategies, and the role you can play in building a greener future.

As resource-rich nations become more influential, governments, businesses, and stakeholders must consider geopolitical factors in their strategies. To ensure long-term sustainability, we need to produce raw materials from waste.

This transition requires quick legislative changes, support for recycling initiatives, and innovations that make recycled materials more attractive than new ones.

In this webinar, we will explore how recovering valuable materials from medical waste, known as urban (hospital) mining, can reduce dependence on raw materials and create stronger supply chains.

By applying circular economy strategies, hospitals can cut waste, lower costs, and improve sustainability through repair, reuse, recycling, and buying materials in a way that reduces waste and supports sustainability.

Key Takeaways

  • The changing global landscape: How geopolitical developments are driving the urgent need for a circular economy.
  • Circular principles as the foundation for future innovation: Their role in shaping products and services.
  • Transforming waste into value: How recycled materials can serve as inputs for new products.
  • Science-driven sustainability: The critical role of technical universities in advancing circular practices in hospitals and beyond.
