The CURIOST project focuses on promoting circular economy practices among SMEs and small mid-caps in Central Europe's mechanics & mechatronics, plastics, packaging and construction sectors.

This event will look at what it has achieved and what it has learned from assisting these businesses with developing circular products, processes and business models.

This conference will take a broad look at the major challenges of our time, looking at technology, sustainability, competitiveness, investment and implementation.

AI, robotics and data are advancing rapidly - but are businesses and societies becoming smarter, more sustainable and resilient?

What do circular cities need to really make an impact? What ideas can get us out of the endless discussion loop and into action? And how do big visions turn into real commitment?

This event organised by Berlin's zero waste agency will be looking to find answers to these questions!

The 40-minute round table on the Circular Economy Act will discuss whether the Circular Economy Act can make Europe the powerhouse of the circular economy, reconciling environmental ambition with industrial competitiveness – or whether it will bring more restrictions than benefits. 

This annual event showcases research capable of converting scientific knowledge into differentiated solutions for high-priority markets. 

Early-stage and experienced researchers will present their most recent results in the fields of chemistry and chemical engineering, with applications in areas including sustainable resource management, recovery, recycling and capitalisation of by-products from various agro-industrial streams.

Through keynote presentations, technical sessions and networking opportunities, this conference will promote interdisciplinary dialogue and encourage innovative approaches that contribute to a cleaner, greener and more sustainable future.

The bioSOILUTIONS and NBSOIL projects will join forces for a final two-day conference exploring how research and innovation can support healthier soils and more resilient farming systems.

Biowaste-based soil improvers, circular fertilisation and nature-based solutions are just some of the solutions that will be discussed.

Healthcare is primarily intended to protect people's health, but it also has an impact on environmental and public health through its own operations and supply chains.

This conference will explore how hospitals can break this pattern by removing hazardous plastics, improving environmental performance and going circular.

The final conference of the RISERS project will explore how standardisation can help scale industrial symbiosis and cross-sector resource efficiency across Europe, bringing together experts from industry, research, policy and standardisation.
