The Business Case for Circular Metals: Unlocking Value from E-Waste and Secondary Materials Presentation Description: Circular metals are no longer just a sustainability ambition — they are a compelling business opportunity. Rising raw-material costs, supply instability, and tightening regulations make secondary metals increasingly attractive from a margin, resilience, and carbon perspective. E-waste, in particular, represents one of the highest-grade metal resources available, yet most of its economic value is currently lost. This keynote demonstrates how companies can capture significant financial upside by improving collection, scaling advanced recycling, and developing new business models around secondary materials. Circularity enhances profitability, reduces risk, and creates strategic advantages across the entire metals value chain.
