Abstract

This chapter focuses on the use of advances in technology reforms and eco-friendly approaches to efficiently tackle the detrimental environmental consequences associated with an overabundance of waste. For the socioeconomic advancement of humanity and the community, sustainable development is imperative. Entrepreneurial ideas, academic researchers, and governmental initiatives are the key to waste management. The present discourse provides an in-depth look at entrepreneurship within the arena of waste management, including a thorough analysis of diverse possibilities available to entrepreneurs. Additionally, a range of case studies is presented to illustrate these prospects. Several creative approaches for waste reduction, reuse, and recycling were explored. The execution of outlined measures in the paper have a beneficial impact towards a circular economy and the attainment of sustainable development goals. The aforementioned examples serve as exemplary solutions, rendering them relevant to numerous countries, sectors, and industries.
