PreZero Circular Transformation Talk DNP

Progress That’s Already Underway

PreZero Talk on Circular Transformation at the DNP - Pushing transformation through open dialogue

We're deeply invested in shaping a more sustainable resource and waste management sector. At the annual German Sustainability Award, we participate in the Circular Transformation Talk — a space where business leaders, scientists, and policymakers come together to discuss real challenges and drive real change.

Last Year's Focus Topic

Circular Economy - Measuring Real Impact on Sustainable Transformation

The circular economy is crucial in achieving sustainable transformation. But how can its impact be quantified with reliable and comparable data? What standards of methodology and transparency do we need to set and aim for?

We're committed to keeping today’s reporting standards, but we’re not stopping there. We aim to expand them with new metrics for avoidable emissions. Here’s what we’re aiming for:

Acting Ahead of Time

We're taking a proactive role in making the progress of sustainable business models visible and measurable, creating incentives for more sustainability.

Measuring Sustainability

We believe measurability drives competition and encourages companies to develop more sustainable products and services.

Sending a Clear Signal

We're supporting the introduction of the scientifically developed 'avoided emissions' metric. It shows — in real numbers — that transformation works.
