At Summit 22 — held at London’s Roundhouse on 5th July 2022 — we convened our Network to demonstrate how circular economy solutions, which are regenerative by design, are tackling some of the biggest global challenges we face today.

Together with our guest speakers, we explored the idea of designing economic activity so that it regenerates, rather than destroys the natural world. We focussed on solutions and innovation that can scale – and showcased leaders and innovators who are mobilising action.

The Summit is the Foundation’s flagship annual event, bringing together business leaders, policymakers, innovators, and global changemakers to accelerate the transition to a circular economycircular economyA systems solution framework that tackles global challenges like climate change, biodiversity loss, waste, and pollution. It is based on three principles, driven by design: eliminate waste and pollution, circulate products and materials (at their highest value), and regenerate nature..

All four Summit 22 sessions were recorded and are now available to watch on catchup.
