In an important step in the growth of the circular economy dialogue, we are happy to announce the formation of the Business Schools Network. This network of institutions has been established with the vision to create a new approach in business schools, and through MBA curricula, that engages with the key ideas and priorities of a circular economy.
The Ellen MacArthur Foundation are delighted to be announcing the launch of an international Circular Economy Business School Network in partnership with the Centre for Low Carbon Futures. This partnership initiative with business schools is about dialogue around the key ideas of an emerging circular economy. The aim is to inform curriculum development in leading business schools around the world as they seek to educate and energise corporate leaders to embrace changing business agendas.
