Enterprise Europe Network Flanders, Wallonie Entreprendre and Hub.Brussels are organising an official WCEF2024 side-event: a global online matchmaking session focusing on circular innovation. It's intended to accelerate the circular economy and fuel the growth of business and research. Whether you're looking for partners or just curious about emerging technologies, it's a chance to connect with like-minded individuals.

There are two aspects: the online matchmaking session will run from 8 to 14 April, setting the stage for the main World Circular Economy Forum. Participants from all backgrounds, including business leaders, advisors, experts, innovators, policymakers, investors, researchers, startups and industry enthusiasts, are all welcome. You can forge new relationships that span different sectors and industries and connect up with people from across the globe. Register here.

Then there's the on-site session on 17 April. This will be hosted by the Belgian presidency of the EU Council under the heading BE Circular Economy Forum. It'll be the biggest WCEF2024 accelerator session and will also take place at SQUARE Brussels. You need to register for the on-site matchmaking in two places: here and on the event website.
