The event starts on Friday, April 19 · 8:30am CEST and aims to showcase the innovative solutions of EU-funded projects to boost plastic recycling and circularity, reduce plastic pollution and thus, contributing to the EU Plastics Strategy, the EU Circular Economy Action Plan and related regulatory frameworks. It will feature presentations by different EU research and innovation projects of their solutions, panel discussions on the plastic waste challenges as well as clustering opportunities to maximise the sustainable and circular management and use of natural resources.
