This conference will explore how to make circularity work on the ground. There will be short sessions on the Circular Economy Act and Dialogue on the circular economy, followed by a panel discussion on whether including the waste sector in the Emissions Trading System will be a boost or a barrier to circularity.
Scaling up bio-based industries can strengthen the EU’s strategic autonomy and competitiveness, foster innovation and create growth and jobs.
The study focuses on three product classes within the bio-based industry that demonstrate significant potential for scaling up: (i) bio-based materials and chemicals, (ii) innovative food and feed ingredients and (iii) bio-based soil nutrients and enhancers.
Key recommendations include leveraging Circular Bio-based Europe Joint Undertaking flagship grant applications to build a pipeline of promising projects, expanding the European Circular Bioeconomy Fund model to enable high-risk investment in early-stage bio-based ventures, and creating an eligibility checker for bioeconomy and circular economy projects.
SUINK (SUstainable self-charging power systems developed by INKjet printing) is a Horizon Europe research and innovation project aiming to design and implement sustainable, flexible and printable self-charging power systems to supply power to a wide range of sensors for the automotive industry. See how it's doing this and incorporating circular principles!
TREASoURcE is a Horizon Europe project seeking to support the implementation of local and regional circular economy solutions. It is organising a series of webinars providing insightful presentations and engaging discussions led by experts in the field.
The second webinar will look at circular economy education and practice, with case studies from Finland, Estonia and Norway.

This webinar will set out the key results achieved in the development of bio-based conductive, dielectric and piezoelectric inks.
This session will bring together CEOs, ministers, investors and academics to discuss how cities can balance rapid urbanisation, sustainability and livability while rethinking the way infrastructure is planned and financed.
Panels will explore the future of urban resilience, integrated infrastructure and adaptive city planning, addressing the critical question of how to create inclusive, sustainable and circular cities that can thrive within planetary boundaries.
The EU Ecolabel is the official European Union voluntary label for environmental excellence. See why it's good for the circular economy (and consumers!), have a look at the latest figures and watch the video on why public procurers should choose EU Ecolabel certified products.
The European Commission has launched a call for evidence on advanced materials, which will feed into the Advanced Materials Act. See what it's about and give your views!
