About this listen

Recorded live during Climate Week NYC, this episode explores how technology can accelerate the transition to a circular economy, not as a bolt-on fix, but as a built-in business strategy. Host Danielle Holly, Executive Lead for North America at the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, is joined by Jen Huffstetler (Chief Sustainability Officer, HP), Jim Sullivan (Head of Product Management, SAP), and Vrushali Gaud (Global Director of Strategy and Operations for Net Zero, Water, and Circularity, Google).

Tune in to hear:

  • Why AI and digital growth make circular strategies essential to meet rising material and energy demands
  • How companies such as HP and Google are embedding circular design and open data into products and services
  • What it takes to move from ‘bolt-on’ fixes to ‘bolt-in’ circular systems across business and finance
  • The biggest blockers and how collaboration can help solve them
  • Why pragmatism and focused collective action are key to turning ambition into measurable impact

Listen back to the series on why circular business models fail to scale
