What will be the impact of the circular economy on the data center and ICT sector in 2020 and beyond?

A circular economy is based on the principles of designing out waste and pollution, keeping products and materials in use, and regenerating natural systems. Can the data center industry embody such a system? What are the challenges? In this discussion Google and UNEP talk us through their different approaches to circular thinking, with insights from the National University of Singapore, and how these can potentially be transferred into the wider market. How can these models from across the globe be successfully expanded across the industry and what will this mean to the future of the data center and ICT sector?
