India / Global - 2025 - Coherent Market Insights (CMI) is honored to be associated with the ET Edge Champions of Circular Revolution Conclave 2025 as Research Partner, supporting one of India’s most distinguished platforms celebrating innovation, sustainability, and leadership accelerating the nation’s transition toward a circular economy.
As a featured speaker, Mr. Mohit Shrivastava, Coherent Market Insights’ AVP – Research & Consulting, presented the structured evaluation methodology created to identify India’s “Champions of Circular Revolution.” He described the multi-stage screening framework, sector-wide mapping process, and independent validation mechanisms used to guarantee transparency, neutrality, and credibility.
Promoting the Circular Economy Discussion in India
Presented as a part of the ET Edge GSA Transformation Series, the Champions of Circular Revolution Conclave assembles business executives, legislators, innovators, and investors to promote visionary discussion about partnerships, strategies, and technologies that are redefining India’s approach to circularity. The Champions of Circular Revolution 2025 Coffee Table Book, which honors companies that demonstrate significant impact and circular excellence, has also been unveiled on the platform.
As companies place a greater emphasis on waste reduction, use of sustainable materials, and long-term value development, platforms like ET Edge are becoming essential for linking insights with practical and scalable solutions.
CMI’s Role: Architecting a Credible Benchmark for Circular Leadership
Coherent Market Insights’ role as a research partner involved designing and conducting a rigorous, data-driven evaluation process.
At the beginning of the process, 1,000+ firms across diverse circular economy value chains, such as plastics and packaging, renewable energy, sustainable construction, textiles, food systems, waste management, industrial manufacturing, and material recovery, were mapped nationwide. The identification of these organizations was conducted through industry databases, statutory filings, sustainability reports, expert consultations, and structured outreach to guarantee breadth and neutrality.
On the basis of operational tenure, sector alignment, compliance record, organized sustainability frameworks, and proven circular initiatives, about 200 firms advanced through the eligibility and governance screening process.
The CMI team used a weighted scoring model that prioritizes measurable results and implementation strength to evaluate the eligible organizations. The main priorities of the framework include execution impact (30%), strategic circular vision (20%), innovation and business model transformation (20%), ESG governance standards (15%), ecosystem influence (10%), and inclusive impact (5%). Furthermore, to maintain fairness across industries and enterprise scales, CMI applied sector-wise normalization and size calibration.
After structured scoring, shortlisted companies were subjected to independent jury evaluation and data validation to validate impact claims, governance disclosures, and compliance records.
As a result of this evidence-led, multi-layered approach, 40 “Champions of Circular Revolution” organizations establishing standards for scalable circular transformation and sustainable value generation were identified in India.
Facilitating Data-Driven Leadership in Sustainability
Using its research-led framework, CMI reinforced governance accountability, promoted definable sustainability outcomes, and established a reliable benchmark for circular leadership.
The partnership demonstrates CMI’s commitment to facilitating informed decision-making while encouraging sector-wide innovation and robust sustainability transformation.
