The EU invest heavily in innovation projects for a circular economy. This event will give you access to a wide range of EU-funded circular economy innovation projects and deep-dive on what this may mean for you. During this free two hour event we will bring together policy makers, representatives from industry and academia who will communicate on a wide range of EU-funded innovations to contribute to a circular economy.
Learn about innovations in the following areas:
- Innovative recycling
- Plastics and textile circularity
- Green automotive innovations
After the opening eight EU projects have been invited to give a presentation and answer the following questions: overall objective of the project and timelines, what innovation is the project about, what will this project change in our future economy and what is the status of the project on achievements and upcoming progress.
