The rate of economic growth has traditionally been reliant upon the use of natural resources. Ynse de Boer, Managing Director at Accenture, Strategy & Sustainability, Asia Pacific, shares insights with DNV on how more businesses are adopting methods to decouple these two issues and facilitate the circular economy.
