Circular Atlanta: From Ideas to Action

​Atlanta has the talent, industry innovation, and community leadership to become a national model for circularity. The question is: What will it take to move from promising ideas to coordinated action?

​Join local leaders, practitioners, businesses, and community partners for a highly interactive morning exploring how Atlanta can accelerate a more circular economy. Rather than relying on traditional presentations, this event will use facilitated conversations, sector-focused breakout groups, rapid roundtables, and whole-room dialogue to connect big ideas with practical action.

​The morning will conclude with a collective harvest of ideas and an invitation for every participant to identify a tangible action they can advance over the next 90 days. Come ready to contribute your experience, learn from other sectors, and help shape what circularity can look like in Atlanta.
