Lecture description
This presentation delves into the escalating global e-waste crisis, focusing on the significant impact of the electronic components industry. With electronic waste projected to reach alarming levels, the need for a circular economy has never been more urgent. The session will explore broader solutions for managing excess electronic components. A practical example from the IP&E (Interconnect, Passive, and Electromechanical components) distribution world will highlight how reintegrating unused components through distributor returns can reduce waste and create both environmental and business value.
