Circular Economy: towards a new & regenerative paradigm


Circular Economy refers to an economy that is regenerative by design. It represents a new economic paradigm inspired by nature, where the concept of waste disappears, and all resources become nutrients for other cycles, whether natural or technological. This closed-loop system contrasts with the current Linear Economy, which no longer provides valid answers to humanity's challenges and its future development.  

The Circular Economy, with its #regenerative approach, is a bolder perspective of the Green Economy (an economy efficient in resources) because it is based on a radical transformation of production means, supply chains, culture, and consumption habits worldwide.  

"Circularizing a business" means gaining sovereignty, reducing the impact of price volatility, maintaining control over resources and the supply chain. It means changing monetization models by engaging customers and innovating in service design and user experience. It means questioning current markets and finding profitable and disruptive opportunities, seeing the economy with new eyes, and unlocking the potential of circular design.

The Circular Economy is already here, demonstrated by the thousands of companies worldwide redesigning their value propositions to be profitable in the present and resilient in the future.
