Facilitating circular business models: The impact of transformed value chains

In a circular economy, the goal is to achieve economic growth without increasing the negative environmental impacts; the value of products and materials is set to last as long as possible, waste and resources are minimized. Both Norway and Germany are working on strategies for a circular economy, and industrial companies in both countries are developing both products with a strong circular commitment, but also new business models in order to adjust to a circular economy.

In this webinar we will look into the current state of circular economy in Norway and Germany and meet companies who make a difference.

Case-stories from our member companies will give an insight in how industries can transform the way goods and materials are produced. Sectors such as aluminum, steel and plastics can deliver major contributions to successfully transform these products value chains. By developing new solutions, processes and technologies, CO2 emissions are continuously reduced.
