Speaker Bio:

Catherine Weetman helps businesses develop ‘future proofed’, resilient strategies, assessing sustainability risks and value opportunities. Catherine is a Visiting Fellow at the University of Huddersfield, UK, is Vice-Chair of the Environment and Sustainability Forum, Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transportation and gained an MSc in Logistics from Cranfield University.

Catherine’s background includes Industrial Engineering in manufacturing and retail distribution, logistics solution design, project management, business intelligence, logistics product development and supply chain consulting. Her career covers food, fashion and logistics, including Tesco Distribution, Kellogg Company, and DHL Supply Chain.

A Circular Economy Handbook for Business and Supply Chains, will be published by Kogan Page in December. Easily digestible and comprehensive, it builds on the range of circular economy approaches. Wide-ranging real examples help business, students and policymakers understand the theory and fast-developing practice, re-shaping business models, operations and supply chains.
Our current ‘linear’ systems – take some materials, make a product, use it and then throw it away – are not fit for purpose. The circular economy unlocks this problem, by ‘decoupling’ resources from consumption. Switched-on businesses are re-thinking product design, material choices, business models and supply chains.
A ‘must-read’ for anyone who wants to understand and apply the circular economy today.

Presentation Title:
