Do you know what a circular economy is? Join us to find out!
The Country Coordinator for Greece is organising the insightful event “Diving into the Circular Economy: A Vision for a World where Nothing Goes to Waste”, that will take place on Tuesday, 10 April 2025, at the Free-Thinking Zone in Athens, from 18:00 – 20:30, and will also be livestreamed from our YouTube channel.
The event will explore the practical adoption of circular economy practices in Greece. Focusing on reducing waste, enhancing resource efficiency, and fostering sustainable growth, the event aims to shift perspectives from a linear economy model to a sustainable, circular approach. Through expert presentations and discussion, participants will enhance their understanding of circular economic principles and their application and learn from successful case studies and new circular business models. They will gain insights into the multiple benefits of circular economic practices, the economic and environmental, and better understand implementation strategies.
The event will be moderated by Alice Corovessi, Managing Director INZEB and Country Coordinator for Greece for the EU Climate Pact.
The event is in Greek language.
