Tech for Treasure
-
Electronic waste is one of the fastest-growing waste streams globally. In 2022, a record 62 million tonnes of electronic waste was produced worldwide. Despite that, only 22% was documented as being properly collected and recycled.
-
We organise pop-up events and corporate workshops around London to raise awareness and provide an opportunity for the public to recycle their old electronics. Participants have the chance to win a small portion of the recovered gold in ingot form, making the process both rewarding and impactful.

If your business would benefit from our workshops, please get in touch with us. Our sessions can enhance your corporate social responsibility efforts and engage your employees in sustainability practices. Additionally, if you’re interested in volunteering to support our initiatives, we’d love to hear from you. Your altruistic efforts have a significant impact on our mission.
