Bridging Craftsmanship, Collaboration and the Circular Economy

Last week, the second annual Nest New Handworker Economy Convening occurred at BNP Paribas to highlight the value of impact financing, data-driven transparency in the supply chain and collaboration in ensuring economic wealth and social health of the global handworker.

The global handworker economy is not simply “making baskets” — it’s the second largest employer of women in developing countries and a “lever of positive change” according to Jean-Yves Fillion, BNP Paribas USA chief executive officer and chairman of CIB Americas.
