Our Founders Lab team — Jacob Benevento, Sydney Evans, and Alec Whiteley — participated in a year-long entrepreneurial journey that led to the creation and launch of our venture, Certified Circular. Certified Circular is a program that certifies on-campus events for implementing circular practices into their activities as well as off-campus businesses. The venture was formed in response to our group’s propelling question and industry selection which called on us to create and market a venture within the ethical circular economy.
