Circular economy – a key driver of Europe’s environmental transition and competitiveness?

With an upcoming legislative package, the EU aims to strengthen the Union’s circular economy. Sieps and the European Commission’s Representation in Sweden are hosting a seminar where Commissioner Jessika Roswall will present the forthcoming legislation, which will then be discussed from the perspectives of academia and industry.

Europe faces the challenge of balancing its environmental ambitions with sustainable growth and more efficient resource use. Through the upcoming Circular Economy Act (CEA), the EU seeks to place circularity at the heart of its economic agenda. What might the new Act mean for European businesses and policymakers, and how could it accelerate the transition to a more resource-efficient economy?

On 18 December, SIEPS and the European Commission Representation in Sweden invite you to a seminar with EU Commissioner Jessika Roswall to explore the upcoming legislative package on circular economy. Bringing together perspectives from EU policymaking, international research and Swedish business, the seminar examines the future of the circular economy and the implications of the EU’s forthcoming initiative.
