Build practical skills in AI, circular economy, ESG, and climate-risk analysis to turn sustainability goals into actionable business strategies. Designed for learners focused on sustainable business transformation, this course explores how agentic AI, intelligent automation, IoT, and real-time environmental data can optimize energy and resources, reduce carbon emissions, strengthen ESG monitoring and reporting, and improve sustainable operations. You’ll apply circular-economy principles across value chains, product design, material recovery, reverse logistics, refurbishment, remanufacturing, product-as-a-service, sharing, and resource-efficient business models. You’ll also evaluate physical and transition climate risks and their effects on credit, investment, insurance, real estate, supply chains, asset values, and corporate resilience. The course uniquely connects AI-powered sustainability with circular business-model innovation, climate risk, ESG regulation, disclosure, transition finance, and compliance. By the end, you’ll be able to formulate scalable, compliant, AI-enabled, circular, and climate-resilient strategies that improve lifecycle value, resource efficiency, and long-term sustainability performance.
