Rising on corporate agendas
Circular economy is getting increased attention both in the public debate and with specific legislation emerging in several countries. In the survey, 3 in 4 companies say they are either analyzing or discussing the topic. However, the approach to circular economy adoption varies. Some have already made circular economy core to their company strategy in order to create economic value and mitigate environmental impacts. For 26%, it is embedded in the company’s sustainability strategy and for 12.4% it is already core to their current business strategies. Companies in Europe reflect a high interest with 81.1% indicating that circular economy has been discussed or analysed.
