We invite you to join us for a distinguished online event organised by the EU Climate Pact Country Coordinator for Greece, INZEB, focused on raising awareness about the circular economy and eco-design, both of which are vital to achieving sustainability. This event, scheduled for Thursday, 20 June 2024, from 16:00 to 17:30, will showcase successful circular projects and innovative business models that exemplify sustainable development.
Our aim is to inspire participants to incorporate circular principles into their personal and professional lives, encouraging collaboration and knowledge sharing. Participants will understand the circular economy comprehensively and be empowered to promote these concepts within their networks.
We anticipate this event will catalyse new circular projects and foster partnerships with civil society organisations and advocates for supportive policies. This is an invaluable opportunity to network with experts, learn from real-world examples, and discover business models that drive sustainability.
We look forward to your participation in this pivotal event. Register now to secure your place and contribute to a collective effort to advance circular economy practices for a sustainable future.
