Addressing the opportunities and challenges in e-waste recycling in the Latin America
Drawing from Trexan Recycling’s experience in Latin America, Gianfranco will share insights on building localized recycling ecosystems capable of processing e-waste close to its source. The discussion will explore the challenges of fragmented supply chains, informal markets, and limited smelting infrastructure in the Global South, and how circular, region-based models can transform these constraints into opportunities for value creation, employment, and environmental impact.
