Circular Insights Lab
The Circular Insights Lab (‘The Lab’), housed by the Center for the Circular Economy is a research and analytics engine that draws on insights from all sectors and verticals at the firm to further expand upon bodies of knowledge, fill gaps in data, and explore adjacent areas of research that advance the circular economy globally.
At the Lab, we conduct quantitative and qualitative research and data analytics through in-market pilots, focus groups, iterative testing and consumer interviews, identifying circular trends, challenges and opportunities.
Reach out to discuss collaborative research opportunities.
