Mismanaged plastic waste can have a detrimental effect on our environment, health and the economy.Within the Indo-Pacific region, it is estimated there are between five and ten billion pieces of plastic on the coastline.To turn the tide on plastic pollution and advance a circular economy, it is crucial to enhance stakeholder collaboration, leverage existing investment, attract new sources of funding, and boost innovation capabilities to tackle plastic waste and translate them into real world solutions across the region.This panel discussion will bring together a group of experts and entrepreneurs to share perspectives on some of the challenges and opportunities to scale-up solutions across the Indo-Pacific.Moderator:Andrea Sosa Pintos, Senior Program Manager, CSIRO’s Indo-Pacific Plastics Innovation Network, SydneySpeakers:Amelia Fyfield, CSIRO’s ASEAN Director, SingaporeAngela Noronha, Director of Growth, Asia - SecondMuse, SingaporeKimberly Bolton, Principal CEO at Carapac, SydneyPeter Tandio, Entrepreneur at Greenhope, Jakarta, IndonesiaThe Greenhope team has  recently won 1st place in the Plastics Innovation Hub Indonesia Accelerator Program.  P﻿LEASE NOTE: In person registrations are limited to 40, and once the venue capacity has been reached, delegates are invited to register here for the webinar.
