Have you ever thought about an approach to life and business where we not only aim to sustain but actively improve and give back to our planet? That’s the essence of a regenerative economy. It’s not just about maintaining the balance; it’s about enhancing it, healing and rejuvenating our environment and communities. This concept takes sustainability and circularity to a new level, focusing on restoration and innovation in how we live and work. This webinar hosted by Trinity College Dublin and BETA Technological Centre, UVIC delves further into this forward-thinking approach.
Speakers:
Breandan Goss, Senior Accelerator and Innovation Manager, Tangent
Dr. Iryna Kohut, Project Manager, at BETA Technological Centre
Dr. Galyna Ryabukha, Economics Scientist at BETA Technological Centre
Siobhan McQuaid, Principal Investigator of GoNaturePositive, Trinity College Dublin
