Circular Economy at IVEY Business School

I’m proud of the distance we’ve come in the last 18 years, but even more excited about where @JuryG will take us in the future. Good things are on the @NBSnet horizon.

I am transitioning out of the Director role of @NBSnet after founding it 18 years ago. NBS will become an even more powerful force for change under Jury Gualandris's direction. I hope you join Jury and the NBS team on that journey. nbs.net/articles/intro…
