Session Description:
Join Circular Economy Club during Circular Cites Week 2023 for a panel discussion moderated by Alison Cove, CEO and Founder of USEFULL, on the policy landscape in Massachusetts and beyond. Panelists from leading policy initiatives will discuss how effective tax, ban, and incentive programs can drive innovation in the circular economy and drive sustainability. The session will provide a comprehensive picture of where policies stand now in our state, how these levers can help drive entrepreneurial solutions, and what moving the conversation forward looks like. We will also discuss case studies of what other states and regions have done and how they can be leveraged to inspire new policy action in Massachusetts.
Free beer and wine will be available for 21+ before the panel starts.
