The European Circular Economy Stakeholder Platform will hold its annual conference on 22-23 April in Brussels.
The European Union is entering a crucial phase in advancing its circular economy agenda. The upcoming Circular Economy Act (CEA) is anticipated to serve as a cornerstone of this framework, enhancing the Single Market for circular products and services while addressing ongoing fragmentation.
The ECESP Annual Conference will provide a high-level platform to discuss the ambitions, scope, and policy direction of the Circular Economy Act, situating it within the broader EU framework, investment needs, and global developments. While the CEA will be central to the discussions, the program will also address related initiatives, such as the EU Bioeconomy Strategy and the implementation challenges that must be overcome to create a competitive and fair circular Single Market.
Designed to facilitate genuine two-way communication, the conference will bring together policymakers, business leaders, financial experts, civil society representatives, youth leaders, and regional stakeholders to exchange experiences, perspectives, and visions. It aims to support evidence-based decision-making, clarify expectations, identify common challenges, and build a shared understanding of the CEA's role in the EU policy landscape. Participants will have opportunities to co-create circular projects, strategies, and narratives that reflect Europe's diversity.
The event will take place over two days with complementary objectives, where the first day will focus on high-level policy debates about the potential of he CEA, and the second day will be all about the stakeholders.
