There, he gave a presentation on how to incorporate sustainability goals into our business values.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chow Tai Fook Jewelry is Ola Tech&#8217;s anchor corporate partner. Over the past six months, the two companies have collaborated in multiple initiatives and events. On 29th April 2020, Peter Lam, Ola Tech&#8217;s CEO, was the main speaker at Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group&#8217;s 91st Annual Supplier Conference. He engaged with Chow Tai Fook&#8217;s 10,000 suppliers and senior management via DingTalk. He discussed the circular economy and its potential applications in the jewelry industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A circular economy refers to an economic system that challenges the traditional &#8216;make, use, dispose of&#8217; method. Instead, the lives of products are spread over a longer period by being passed from one use to another, sometimes in different forms. Peter provided an example of how this creates a unique connection between the tech and jewelry industries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Approximately 1,000 smartphones contain around 25g of gold. This means that instead of harming the environment while extracting gold from ores, it can be retrieved from old smartphones. In fact, the gold content in a ton of mobile phones is 100 times higher than that of a ton of gold ore. This gold can then be used to make jewelry. This is just one example of many where the environment can be protected while simultaneously reducing e-waste by promoting a circular economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to Peter, over time, more companies have started to appreciate the importance of\u00a0<em>sustainable<\/em>\u00a0development. This gave rise to the triple bottom line framework, which consists of people, planet, and profit. All of these jointly measure business success. Peter concluded the talk by discussing how companies can align their missions with the UN Sustainable Development Goals to become more eco-friendly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.ola.tech\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/chow-tai-fook-circular-economy-talk-1-750x1000-1.jpg\" alt=\"Ola Tech's Employee's at the Chow Tai Fook Headquarters post the talk on Circular Economy\" class=\"wp-image-7113\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em><span class=\"has-inline-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color\">Ola Tech&#8217;s CEO and other employees at the Chow Tai Fook Headquarters post the presentation <\/span><\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Post the talk, Ola Tech collaborated with Chow Tai Fook&#8217;s corporate IT team and received 170 units of decommissioned tablets for their first corporate donation program.
