This week's episode is all about standards – why they're needed to scale reusable packaging and infrastructure, and how they serve as a critical piece of the puzzle that enables businesses to operate and thrive in the growing circular economy.  Host Matt Prindiville sits down with Amy Larkin and Claudette Juska, Co-Founders of PR3 at RESOLVE, who have dug in hard on the infrastructure question. They launched PR3 to develop Reusable Packaging Design Standards to help transform the current landscape of disconnected, small-scale reuse pilots into full-scale, interoperable public-private systems. And they’re now working with the City of Seattle, local sports and entertainment venues, and businesses to create a model that can be replicated around the world.
