The Brussels Capital Region gathers the pioneer cities of the circular economy

Eighteen months after the launch of its regional programme for a circular economy, Brussels presents its first results and hosts Amsterdam, Glasgow, Lille, London and Paris to put them in perspective at the BeCircular Annual Meeting 2017. Governance, financing, construction, logistics… find out how these pioneering European cities reinvent the economy to meet economic, social, demographic, health, climate and environmental challenges.

The Brussels-Capital Region committed to the circular economy and in March 2016 launched an ambitious programme to engage in the transition of its economy. To ensure the success of this transition, the region intends to pool efforts with other cities and regions of Europe, and work together towards the emergence of new ideas and collaboration.

This is why we have invited representatives from other European cities already very involved in the circular economy (Amsterdam, Paris, Glasgow, London and Lille), in order to view in parallel the actions taken by Brussels and other cities to transform their economies into circular systems.

With more than 350 professionals present (companies, public authorities, federations, associations, etc.), come and take part in discussions and provide solutions for the economy of tomorrow.
