👉 The Proseed Circular Economy Panel,
Sponsored by AI360

👉 What is the Circular Economy?

The Circular Economy is an approach to lowering humanity’s environmental impact by optimizing the use, and reuse, of resources.

Most of us are eager to be a part of it.

But many of us haven’t yet got a picture of:

• What will it MEAN?
• When will it ARRIVE?
• How will we participate in it?

👉 It’s Here!

The circular economy is here

• It is real, tangible and growing globally and in Thailand.
• There are huge amounts of people employed, capital committed and business engaged in providing products and services
• Developed by thriving companies and organizations.

Thailand’s Bio-Circular-Green is a positive approach to supporting local development.

👉 What’s on the Panel?

The AI360 Circular Economy panel will share real experiences and discuss key issues of circular economy development in Thailand including:

• Design and transformation
• Recycling, reuse, reduction and asset ownership models
• Manufacturing, distribution, and sales of products to end customers.

This panel will view the circular economy as a complement to the energy transition that applies a similar concept to a broader set of resources than energy.
