As the world’s fastest-growing waste stream, e-waste represents one of the most overlooked opportunities for sustainability and ESG leaders to make tangible, reportable impact.

Reconome, a pioneering B Corp and accredited ITAD provider, is helping organisations turn surplus technology into measurable Scope 3 reductions and real social change.

At edie ’26, Reconome will showcase how responsible IT asset disposition can shift technology from being a sunk IT cost to a cost-neutral ESG lever; one that protects data, prevents waste, and powers inclusion.

Our circular IT process transforms retired devices into affordable, warrantied technology for businesses and, crucially, into lifelines for digitally excluded communities across the UK.

Reconome’s impact to date includes preventing 47,000 tonnes of e-waste, repurposing 180,000 devices, saving 12,000 tonnes of CO₂, and enhancing the lives of over 250,000 people through technology access and skills. Reconome is the exclusive tech partner of the Good Things Foundation, powering the National Device Bank, which is the UK’s flagship digital-inclusion programme.

Nick Rawkins, CEO & Founder, Reconome:

“At Reconome, we believe that everyone, no matter their background or circumstances, deserves the chance to live a healthy life, pursue education, build a meaningful career, and follow their passions.

In today’s world, technology and digital skills are essential to unlocking those opportunities. Yet in the UK alone, over 11 million people remain digitally excluded, cut off from the very tools that enable connection, learning, and growth.

Reconome was founded in 2018 to change this by repurposing technology to break down barriers, close the digital divide, and create opportunities for people and communities to thrive — a philosophy and ecosystem that benefits all stakeholders, without compromise.”
