On Tuesday, October 11, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation held the Sustainability and Circular Economy Summit 2022 in Washington, D.C. This event convened corporate responsibility professionals, government leaders, academics, and sustainability changemakers to learn and educate one another on replicable, successful sustainability and circular economy initiatives.

The COVID-19 pandemic, ongoing global conflicts, and supply chain disruptions have upended business models and shifted priorities for all sectors. Despite these challenges, the business community has the opportunity to meet this unprecedented moment and leverage the power of the private sector to develop solutions that are more resilient and sustainable.

This year's conference featured top leaders to discuss how companies are navigating these uncertain times, cutting-edge strategies for achieving sustainability goals, and how to leverage collaboration and innovation to channel emerging trends into lasting systemic change.
