Designing finance for a circular economy transition – Sponsored by ANZ

Jul 23 2025

1:45 PM - 2:30 PM

Finance is an important enabler of a circular economy transition. So too is good design. In this session, the panel will discuss how well-designed projects and initiatives can be attractive to and indeed supported by finance that values sustainability.
Even the best designs need financing, sound business models, and economic incentives to scale. The panel will discuss the implications of policies – corporate and government – and finance and their influence on changing business models needed to make circular models viable and competitive.
