Listen "Achieving a global circular economy"
Episode Synopsis
Climate change is the issue on everyone's minds, as scientists predict that unless global carbon emissions are drastically reduced, that the world will soon reach an irreversible tipping point. As a result, it's estimated that a global circular economy could be worth 4.5 trillion dollars by 2030, even though the world's economy is currently only 8.6% circular. In this episode, you'll hear from Tanah Sullivan, the Group Head of Sustainability for GoTo. GoTo is the largest digital ecosystem in Indonesia, and Tanah's role involves overseeing the integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance initiatives for GoTo's customers. We're also joined by Carlo Chen-Delantar, Head of Circular Economy at Gobi Partners, a venture capital investment firm. Carlo leads investments in innovative companies that are championing sustainability, drawing on his previous experience as an award-winning social entrepreneur where he helped provide access to water to over one million people in the Philippines. Tanah and Carlo are leaders in sustainable business, who will share their experience in transitioning to a circular economy, and explore how connectivity can be used to protect the planet whilst ensuring economic growth and job opportunities in the Asia Pacific region.
