Plant Chicago’s Circular Economy Leaders Network (CELN) brings Chicago-area small businesses together to cultivate local circular economies. A local circular economy is one that regenerates natural ecosystems, minimizes waste, and ensures that economic and social benefits are distributed equitably.

Any small business based in the Chicago area and interested in implementing circular economy practices is welcome to join. We consider small businesses to have 20 employees or under - but we are open to larger numbers as well. Potential members include established small businesses, early-stage entrepreneurs, home-based businesses, and independent contractors.

If you're new to Plant Chicago and CELN, please be sure to review the one-pager linked below before filling out this application. A Plant Chicago staff member will follow up with you once you complete this application. This application is due by February 1 and should take about 20 minutes to complete.
