In today’s episode of Category Visionaries, we speak with Gary Lewis, CEO of Resourcify, a digital waste management platform set to recalibrate our relationship with waste and help drive transformation across the economy towards a more sustainable future. Focusing on B2B solutions for major players, many of whom have become stagnant in an outdated waste-management model, Resourcify promises a more streamlined solution to sustainability, giving entrepreneurs and business leaders the power to make real changes with their waste.
With more than 150 million euros worth of waste currently under management, and the market on track to grow exponentially in the coming years, Resourcify sees itself as a potential market leader in the new industry of integrated waste management. Business is beautiful, especially when it saves the world.
