Powering Innovation: now and in the future

Powering innovation for a circular economy has been the essence of the Cradle to Cradle Products Innovation Institute for the past decade. How has the approach to innovation and system transformation changed over the past years? What will be required from businesses and their partners to stay relevant in the future and make a widely accepted, positive impact? This conversation with two Board members of the Institute will reflect on the next norm of circularity and sustainability, and the evolving role of the Institute in driving tangible change at large scale.

A leading conversation with:

  • Gerrit Bruggeman – C-Suite Advisor & Board Chair C2CPII

Material Health: the key to unlocking the circular economy

A future-proof circular economy starts with the selection of chemicals and materials that protect human health and the environment, and have a positive impact on future product use and cycling. What does it mean to innovate for safe ingredients and materials, and how is chemistry linked to other parts of a circular system? Three pioneering companies from the Cradle to Cradle community will share their insights and best practices on how to make a “safe then circular” future a reality.

A panel discussion with:

  • Ralf Kattanek – Group VP Textiles, CHT

How can companies move from simply collaborating to creating actionable solutions of value for the entire system? Business leaders with deep Cradle to Cradle certification knowledge share their journeys of establishing and implementing supplier partnerships of unprecedented innovation and industry transformation.

Changing Behaviours: the next generation of purchasers and consumers

Consumers play a decisive role in the shift towards a circular future. With changing lifestyles and increasing sustainability awareness across all generations and regions, the positive impact of products start to gain centerstage in purchasing choices. How can we make it easier for consumers to recognise better products and how can companies tap into circular behaviour patterns? In this session you will hear from three pioneers who not only make the products of tomorrow but also involve the consumer in the circularity journey.
