Since October 2016, the R2π Consortium – composed of experts from the business sector, public bodies, think tanks and universities – has conducted in-depth business case studies, surveys and stakeholder exchanges to identify the key enablers and barriers faced by organisations transitioning to a circular economy, which will now be presented at this final conference.

The capstone conference will aim to discuss how to transition to circular economy business models and policies, through the lessons learnt from opportunities, challenges and practices of innovative organisations. Participants will thus have the opportunity to:

• Network with business leaders and policy makers from leading organisations;
• Learn about successful circular business models from others;
• Test practice-oriented tools to innovate your own circular business models;
• Discuss policy recommendations for transitioning.
