How do we build a circular business case for the built environment?
December 19, 2019

Rapid building construction poses significant challenges due to its wasteful practices and intensive material use. Kåre Stokholm Poulsgaard (GXN) explores digital technology's impact on human well-being and design in the built environment. Richard Boyd (Arup) applies circular economy principles to make construction sustainable and carbon-constrained.

The Ellen MacArthur Foundation, a UK charity, accelerates the transition to a circular economy. Founded in 2010 by Ellen MacArthur, it is a global thought leader, influencing decision-makers across business, government, and academia.
