Circle Economy is a pioneering non-profit organisation dedicated to advancing the circular economy. Focused on sustainability, they aim to redefine economic practices to create regenerative systems that minimise waste and enhance resource efficiency. The organisation is structured to catalyse circular transformations on a global scale, engaging with businesses, governments, and communities.

Circle Economy’s primary focus is on the circular economy, advocating for a paradigm shift from the traditional linear model. They work to decouple economic growth from resource depletion and environmental harm. By promoting circularity, they seek to design out waste, regenerate natural systems, and contribute to a more sustainable future.

Their overarching goal is to accelerate the adoption of circular principles across industries. This includes collaborating with businesses to implement circular strategies, influencing policymakers to integrate circularity into regulations, and raising awareness to drive consumer demand for sustainable products and services.

Circle Economy operates as a non-profit, leveraging partnerships, research, and advocacy to drive systemic change. Their structure encompasses multidisciplinary teams, combining experts in circular design, economics, and sustainability. Collaborations with a diverse range of stakeholders, including businesses, governments, and NGOs, underscore the inclusive nature of their approach.

While not explicitly a financial entity, Circle Economy plays a pivotal role in influencing sustainable finance indirectly. By championing circular practices, they contribute to the creation of a more sustainable and resilient economy, aligning with the broader goals of sustainable finance to allocate capital towards environmentally and socially responsible initiatives.

Circle Economy offers valuable resources, including research reports, toolkits, and practical guides. These resources cover a spectrum of circular economy topics, from supply chain optimization to waste reduction strategies. Accessible databases and case studies facilitate knowledge-sharing and provide tangible insights for organisations looking to integrate circular principles.

We empower industries, cities and nations with practical and scalable solutions to put the circular economy into action.

We work to empower individuals, advance available knowledge and create useful tools, methodologies and programmes to accelerate the circular transition. Our goal is to increase the uptake of circular principles and innovations by industries, city and national governments, and the public. Donors like you make our work possible.
