Nick Ramsay Wants Your Next Phone to Have a Second Life
The Circular founder is betting that access can beat ownership - and that a phone passed from one careful user to the next can become a better business, not merely a greener one.
Reconext
Reconext is a global aftermarket lifecycle services company that takes returned, broken, or retired electronics - phones, laptops, set-top boxes, AI servers, point-of-sale gear - and gives them a second life. Through repair, refurbishment, testing, trade-in, asset recovery, and IT asset disposition, the company keeps devices and components circulating instead of heading to landfill. Headquartered in Grapevine, Texas and operating roughly 22 facilities across the Americas, Europe, and Asia Pacific, Reconext serves manufacturers, carriers, retailers, insurers, and data centers.
