This event has passed

The circular economy focuses on reusing materials and raw materials, and minimising waste. This instead of a linear 'take-make-use-dispose away' way. As an entrepreneur in that circular economy, you aim for closed cycles, in which products, parts and materials are reused, repaired, recycled or redesigned. That sounds great, of course, but how do you go about it in concrete terms? How do you do it as a busy SME? How do you get others on board and what are the benefits? We answer all these kinds of questions in this introductory webinar: Getting started with circular economy.
