This webinar is organised by the Horizon Europe project Up2Circ (Boosting the uptake of circular business model, product and process innovation), which aims to accelerate and scale up the transition of European SMEs towards a circular economy.

SMEs need coordinated access to expertise, tools, finance, training and partners to adopt circular practices - but support actors often work through separate projects, networks and procedures. This event will provide a practical space to connect these capabilities, share and (re)use what already exists and design clearer pathways for SMEs and their advisors.

Project partners will present the project's most useful outcomes, including the guide on “How to Perform Better”, the Up2Circ tools and Academy and the SME support pathway.

The session will be particularly useful for innovation and business advisors, EU-funded initiatives, clusters, regional development organisations, training and technology providers, financing actors, public authorities and networks supporting SME competitiveness and sustainability.

The discussion will help to identify useful practices, contacts, tools and signposting procedures, and how they can become repeatable good practices.

This webinar will take place at 14:00-15:30 CEST on 26 October. See the programme and register.
