An Entrepreneur’s Approach to Sustainability

As entrepreneurs build their businesses with sustainability top of mind, plastic continues to play a vital role, but it isn’t always an easy sell to consumers. However, companies like Bogobrush are driving educational conversations around circularity through product stories and content marketing. 

Haley Lowry, Global Sustainability and End Use Marketing Director at Dow, recently sat down with Heather McDougall, co-founder and CEO of Bogobrush, to speak about the importance of bringing a sustainable-first mindset to the personal care industry, what it means to be a sustainability-focused entrepreneur, and how the “made from waste” concept will help us achieve a more circular economy.
