GreenBiz Group is a media and events company that’s working to accelerate a just transition to a clean economy. Not only do they do cutting edge journalism at the intersection of business, technology and sustainability, they also organize incredible events – like the Circularity Conference – that bring together business, non-profit and government leaders to learn, network and catalyze new opportunities.  They’re also a 2022 Reusies partner and Suz Okie is on the judge’s panel this year.  Host Matt Prindiville sits down with Suz and Jon Smieja and discusses pivoting their Circularity conference during the pandemic, key trends (hint: EPR is a big one) and what we need to “unlearn” (siloed systems and the way we consume) in order to make reuse scale.
