Circular economy doesn’t happen in silos. It happens along the value chain, which is exactly where CIRCULAR REPUBLIC’s two projects E-Motor Recycling and Industry Electronics operate, and why we’d like to invite you to the Industrial Circularity Forum on June 25, 2026 hosted at Festo (Esslingen).
This afternoon brings together industry, recyclers, research and policy to share insights from both projects and to discuss, in concrete terms, how European raw materials security can be built in practice.
