Why is data crucial to a circular economy?

Dr Gev Eduljee, External Affairs Director at SUEZ recycling and recovery UK, shares his thoughts on how data influences the resource industry.

According to Gev, data forms the backbone of the circular economy, which is why society needs policymakers to put big data “front-centre of the resource strategy.”

The retail, banking and many other sectors joined a digital revolution and the resource sector has to follow suit. This video explains why data plays an important role and is crucial in delivering a circular economy.

Gev comments: “As resource managers we want to collect smart data at the business level and pass financial savings and environmental benefits to our customers.”
