I had the pleasure of visiting Pöyry's headquarters and meeting Jaana Tyynismaa and Jouni Honkala. In this episode 48 of the AEC Business Podcast we talk about circular economy.

Pöyry is an international consulting and engineering company serving clients worldwide across the energy, industry, and infrastructure sectors. Last year, the net sales of Pöyry Group exceeded half a billion euros, with around 6,000 employees.

Jaana is the President of Environmental Business in Pöyry Northern Europe. Jouni is the leader of the Mining and Metals Business in Finland, with operations in Scandinavia.

We discuss the following topics

What is the circular economy, and what are its main drivers

Why AEC companies should care about the circular economy

Pöyry is planning to build a 100 percent recyclable factory. Jaana and Jouni describe the project.
