Investors, circular entrepreneurs, city and regional representatives, policymakers and incubators will come together to focus on one central question: what is still preventing circular businesses from scaling in Europe — and what practical changes are needed to close the gap!
This conference will focus on the European policies, technologies and business models that are reshaping circularity, from the Circular Economy Act and textile legislation to the Digital Product Passport and artificial intelligence.
