Principles and drivers of circular economies and sustainability in practice<\/a><\/p>\n Alwyn Hopkins is a Newcastle graduate earning a BA Hons in English and a former Newcastle University Business School student (MSc International Marketing) with Net Zero and sustainability expertise. He specialises in corporate response to new regulations such as carbon pricing schemes and Extended Producer Responsibility. He will be speaking about business sustainability in practice in a personal capacity.<\/p>\n Alwyn will introduce the principles and policy drivers of the circular economy before presenting some applied examples of the transition towards closed-loop supply chains. Drawing on his experiences working in the advanced manufacturing and mobility sector, he will share some of the challenges faced by businesses moving complex supply chains away from linear models and suggest some future areas for policy development and research which could expedite economy-wide transformation in line with circularity priorities.<\/p>\n This will be a hybrid seminar: https:\/\/newcastleuniversity.zoom.us\/j\/87665496595<\/a> and we look forward to your attendance in person or online.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
