Have attended some panels #CFS2020VR @cfsbylablaco #CircularEconomy this weekend I’ve been a VR sceptic for a long time from a retail and brand innovation perspective. But this summit proved to me it’s potential for networking, now I just have to work out virtual note taking..

To my brand and retail friends who value sustainability: how you treat your supply chain partners right now will determine your ability to be "sustainable" potentially forever. Treat them terribly and you can never be "sustainable"
