The Circular Economy concept has gained wide traction among decision-makers as well as the general public over the past few years and a lot of initiatives and projects are looking into making a Circular Economy a reality. The Circular Economy Barcamp Berlin provides a space for all stakeholders to come together and present and discuss their projects, ideas or simply engage with likeminded people!

Barcamps are so called unconferences or ad-hoc conferences. Instead of sitting back and listening, barcamps are all about engagement and interactivity and provide a flexible space for discussion of spontaneously proposed topics. During the Circular Economy Barcamp Berlin every participant will have 30sec during the initial welcome session to present a topic that he or she would like to discuss. Afterwards, the audience will vote on the proposed topic. If enough interest for the topic is in the room, a time-slot and room will be allocated for the open group discussion. As such, we will build the program on the spot and tailor it as best as possible to your interest!

We tested the barcamp format during last year’s Life Cycle Innovation Conference and had a lot of positive feedback! That’s why we decided to use the format to provide a space for an open discussion on all things Circular Economy! We look forward to a full day of interesting discussions on e.g.:

• Circular Economy and Digitalization
• Circular Fashion
• Circular Packaging
• Measuring Circularity
• LCA and Circular Economy
• …
