TEMA: Plasten som ingen vill ta i.
BEHOV: Minska mängden brännbart. Cirkulera mer och fler varianter på plaster.
Välkommen att lyssna och bidra med ditt perspektiv och dina tankar i samtalet den 23:e sep kl 13.00. När samtalet börjar har vi samlat in en bild av frågeställningar från deltagarna att beröra.
FOKUS DENNA GÅNG /UTGÅNGSBEHOV FÖR SAMTALET / EXEMPEL:
Vården / sjukhusmiljön. Ofta nämns kontaminerat eller riskavfall som inte återvinns som ett stort problem, men även andra volymer som INTE klassas som kontaminerat eller riskavfall är väldigt stora volymer och där vill vi öka cirkulerandet, och minska brännandet.
Exempel som nämnts i behovsintervjuer är plasthandskar, visir och skyddsförkläden, för dessa saknas det mottagare idag. Regionerna (inköparna) saknar feedback från företagen varför de inte kan /väljer/prioriterar att ta emot dem.
Behovet av en tydligare dialog mellan avfallslämnare och återvinnare finns, och vi vill öppna samtalet med att titta på situationen från flera håll, för att ta den ”från början” och se hur hela kedjans aktörer från beställare till utförare, men även lagstiftare och myndighet kan bidra med perspektiv, idéer, och lyssna på varann för att hitta smartare, enklare lösningar tillsammans.
Ansvariga för workshopen: Fredrik Blomquist & Linda Krondahl för IGNITE SWEDEN & RE:SOURCE

Event details
Dates: March 10, 2021
Time: 09:30 – 11:00 CET
Host: Ignite Sweden and Innovation Pioneers
Format: Online
Please note that this session is exclusively for Ignite Public & Corporate Members and Initiators & Members of Innovation Pioneers.
These are some of the topics we will cover:
- What is the role of Innovation Management to support a Stakeholder value?
- What are the challenges of pursuing the stakeholder value creation perspective?
- What are the effects on how innovation efforts are funded and financed taking multiple stakeholders into consideration?
- In what way should Innovation Management adapt to support this need and opportunity?
Are you ready to make a shift from Shareholder to Stakeholder focus?
A new impact economy is being built, one where businesses prioritize and consider their impact on all the stakeholders they impact—including communities, workers, customers, and the environment.
Ignite Sweden and Innovation Pioneers now team up for three joint iX Sessions in 2021 on the theme ”Shareholder vs Stakeholder value”. The goal is to share, learn and co-create a shift for our member companies to a stakeholder focus to benefit more sustainable and profitable business models.
The background
In 2017 the debate shifted drastically on whether the purpose of companies should be to deliver value only to its shareholders, or also other stakeholders; employees, and the ecosystem and the societies that companies are part of. It was finally proven that “long-term led” companies over time actually deliver significantly higher ROI to its shareholders than companies focused on beating the previous quarter.
Two things distinguish long-term led companies. Firstly, their long-term investment perspective helped them to grow faster by increasing their innovation capabilities and resilience to change. Secondly, they embraced a broader stakeholder perspective.
The top management of most short-term led companies did not pay much attention to this “new” insight at the time. But, the capital market did. This coincided with the increasing attention on climate change and the growing awareness of the “Millennial effect”, i.e. the power of young consumers increasingly making sustainable purchase choices.
A key milestone for the capital to swing towards sustainability and long-termism was that renewable energy had become the better investment alternative and initiatives like Agenda 2030, the Paris agreement, etc. The next milestone was at the World Economic Forum in Davos 2020. Finally, a broad and concrete framework for ESG-reporting was presented that could be broadly adopted by companies, regulatory instances and the capital markets.
The effect is both increasingly tougher legislation on ESG-reporting, and that today’s capital markets increasingly welcome this to be able to attribute higher risk to investments in companies with poor ESG-reporting and/or low ESG ambitions.
Against this background, we invite all members of Innovation Pioneers & Ignite Sweden to share and learn on this topic. Together we will start mapping collective insights on the topic, digging into the core questions and, and empower you to address the topic with your colleagues “at home”.
