About this event

Subcontractors that provide trucking, micro-hauling, auditing, outreach, recycling or training services play a vital role for the New York City Department of Sanitation (DSNY). As part of efforts to alert women and minority-owned firms of specific opportunities based on recent legislation, DSNY invites your firm to learn about ways to diversify your present operations to remain more competitive. Additionally, in conjunction with International Women's Day, stand with DSNY to highlight the accomplishments of women and minority owned firms in the waste industry.

Panel: Circular Economy Opportunities for Diverse Firms in Waste
The circular economy, the recovery of materials and energy from used products, is becoming a broader practice. This concept is seen as a solution to tackle the current and global environmental, social and economic challenges. It can also create new contract opportunities for women/ minority-owned firms and jobs for individuals in urban communities. Learn from these panel experts and explore partnerships as they share their knowledge and experience to potentially expand your business model and play an integral role in joining the circular economy.
