Invitation to a Combient Pure Workshop on June 9, 2021
Combient Pure is a new initiative by the Combient network. Our aim is to revolutionize value chains towards low carbon and circular business. We accelerate the collaboration and co-creation between leading companies to create new, tangible business solutions. Now we are inviting you to discuss circular business opportunities in the battery value chain.
The world is moving rapidly towards electrification and the demand for batteries is growing exponentially. The scarcity of natural resources as well as the still developing battery industry pose a business opportunity for creating new circular solutions.
We want to gather the battery industry players within the Combient network together to share your insights and inspiring business cases from the battery value chain. How do we create a sustainable battery economy from a resource use perspective? And could we recognize mutual business opportunities for creating a circular economy of batteries in the Combient network? Come discuss and find out on June 9th!
