In this Excel workbook is a monetization tool that we’ve been developing at NYU Stern CSB in collaboration with our apparel company partners. This particular tool is related to the 'Investing in Circularity and Innovation' strategy and focuses on resale-related benefits. We welcome feedback and strongly encourage companies to test and modify this tool, as appropriate. We are also open to partnerships on how to build this monetization tool further.

Please see here for additional details from our case study collaboration with an apparel company partner.

NYU Stern CSB’s ROSI (Return on Sustainability Investment) methodology is designed to be a simple yet comprehensive process that identifies material sustainability strategies and the changed practices resulting from those strategies.

When companies embed sustainability, this influences a suite of mediating factors that drive financial benefits for businesses and society, which can be quantified and monetized.

By using this template, apparel companies are one step closer to monetizing circularity financial benefits and further understanding the impact of sustainability-led initiatives within this strategy.
