Consumers are increasingly interested in circularity and sustainability, but delivering on their heightened expectations is no easy task for retailers & brands. Join us for our next innovation showcase, where we will hear Bain Retail leaders and startup innovators discuss cutting-edge solutions that minimize waste and protect the value of food, consumer products, and the packaging they are sold in.
We will spotlight two disruptors in the sector:
- Ryan Begin, CEO of Divert - Founded in 2007, Divert is an impact technology company on a mission to Protect the Value of Food™. The company creates advanced technologies and sustainable infrastructure to prevent wasted food, driving social and environmental impact. Divert works with 5,400 retail stores across the U.S., providing technology, logistics, and anaerobic digestion facilities to help retailers reach their sustainability goals.
- Rebecca Hu, Glacier develops AI-enabled robots that deliver real-time recycling data and recover recycled feedstock for brands, retailers, recyclers, and governments. Glacier's robots divert thousands of tons of material from the landfill annually. Glacier's work has been featured in TechCrunch, Axios, and Forbes.
