Join us Wednesday, April 14, 12 noon ET, for a conversation with Bridget Croke and Jade Wilting, two powerhouses in the emerging circular economy.

Bridget Croke is a Managing Director and part of the founding team at Closed Loop Partners, an investment and innovation firm working to accelerate a more circular economy.  She also serves as an advisor to the Ocean Plastic Leadership Network and sits on the Board of Directors for Algramo, a smart refillable packaging company out of Santiago, Chile.  Over the course of her career, Bridget has worked for food and recycling organizations within the sharing economy.

Jade Wilting serves as Circle Economy’s Textiles Programme project manager, where she leads On Course (a suite of circularity workshops for apparel brands and fashion schools) and Dutch Circular Textiles Valley (a project aimed at accelerating the local circular textiles value chain). Additionally, she manages a number of research projects including the Labels Accuracy report for the Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management. Previously, Jade has worked for a garment manufacturing company in Hong Kong and Shanghai in product development, and has also lectured at Amsterdam Fashion Institute.
