Circular Economy Hub has been holding a monthly series called Circular X since April 27th, 2021.

The topic for the 4th session of Circular X, which was held on July 27th, was “Circular Economies and Digital Transformation.” We invited three speakers for the event day: Mr. Riichi Yamada, who serves as Head of the Innovation Promotion Office at Marubeni Corporation’s 4th Chemicals Division, his colleague Mr. Tokito Kamimaki from the same company and division and Mr. Hitoshi Aizawa, who serves as Chief Director of Strategic Planning and Business Development at Philips Japan as well as Director of its Co-Creation Center.
