Why new circular business models like Re-commerce & Rentals will significantly change the outdoor industry?
Speaker: Benjamin Marias, AIR Coop
The outdoor industry has long advocated that durability and repairability are two crucial components of sustainability and contributors towards a circular economy. However, the overall goal of the industry is selling more products every season
(even if they are long-lasting and repairable). What if we reconsidered our business models and generate revenues without selling more products? What if we implemented systemic changes in the way we are doing business to become fully circular?

Climate action panel
Speakers: David Ekelund (Icebug), Owen Hewlett (Gold Standard)
We are currently in a state of climate emergency and climate action is an area that should be without a doubt on the agendas of brands and retailers in the coming year. This session will begin with a simple introduction to the area presenting some of the terminology and relevant information and a case study from a climate positive brand who will share their story of how they achieved this.
This will be followed by a deeper-dive into the topic with information on driving ambitious change in supply chains; Gold Standard will present new guidance and approaches to take direct action in company supply chains to drive carbon removals and reduce emissions.
