Back to EpisodesRefurbishment, Recycling, And Data Analytics In Supply Chain - A Chat With Sagent CEO Gordon Smith
Description
Recycling and refurbishment are two topics we don't discuss enough on this podcast so I thought I'd change that with this episode.
Sagent is a service provider to the telco space and it helps divert large amounts of communications equipment out of the waste stream. I invited Gordon Smith, President, and CEO of Sagent to come on the podcast to tell me how they achieve this.
