How can a company become more sustainable while remaining competitive? On 25 November, Voka is organising a roundtable in Ghent dedicated to the 10 “R” strategies of the circular economy: a practical framework to transform your business model, optimise your resources and create value differently.
Take Action: Explore the 10 “R” Strategies for your Circular Transition
The morning session has three objectives:
- discover how to operate more sustainably without losing your competitive edge
- understand how these strategies can be applied within your own company (resource reduction, reuseReuse designates all operations by which substances, materials or products that are not waste are used again in an identical way to their originally intended purpose., repairRepair is making a faulty product work again, allowing its use to be extended without the user parting with it, or with a view to reuse (donation, second-hand sale)., reconditioning, “as a service” models, etc.)
- identify the most relevant levers for your activity
The workshop will be led by VLAIO advisers with the support of Voka and will combine theory, business testimonials and group work around your own ambitions.
