Value Reconfiguration
This case explores how Circulus could turn an identified recovery opportunity into a viable commercial pathway reconfiguration. It through value considers how earlier intervention in asset retirement decisions could help preserve potential value by coordinating recovery activities, allocating risk, and agreeing how additional value is shared across stakeholders

Repairability becomes commercially meaningful when the wider value network is organised to recover, repair, recertify and redeploy components before their embodied value is lost through premature disposal.
Reconfiguring Value for Circular Electronics
Value can remain embedded in products, components and materials long after the economy has classified them as waste. The label therefore signals the end of one use, not necessarily the end of value.
