Wendy & Eric Schmidt to Join Ellen MacArthur in London to Launch Fellowship Programme on June 19th at Public Lecture
Eric's keynote address will be followed by a panel discussion, chaired by Dominic Waughray of the World Economic Forum, during which leading thinkers from across the world will explore the challenges and opportunities for businesses making the transition to a circular economy.
Panelists include: Professor Michael Braungart & William McDonough (authors and founders of the Cradle to Cradle movement), Professor Walter Stahel (Founder Product Life Institute & member of the Club of Rome ), Janine Benyus (Co-founder of the Biomimcry Guild & President of the Biomimicry Institute) and Jeremy Oppenheim (McKinsey & Co).
The event will also bring together participants from the CE100, a global alliance working to accelerate circular economy innovation across global corporations, emerging innovators and regions. The excitement building around this event is reflective of the exceptional level of interest growing around the circular economy, which is increasingly being seen as a compelling framework for a resilient economy.
