NEW_InnoNET | Stakeholder Conference | BRUSSELS 2016

Towards near-zero waste at European and global level
On 8-9 June 2016, we will discuss, together with our stakeholders, roadmaps towards an innovative, near zero waste Europe. Join us for this interactive stakeholder conference on the future of Europe’s circular economy. Let’s start preparing together for this event that will gather all the actors in the field: companies, researchers and governmental organizations. Let us know what your organization wants to address!

Obstacles, roadmaps and action:
The NEW_InnoNET Stakeholder Conference 2016 will make the journey from obstacles, via roadmaps, to actions towards a near-zero waste Europe. What does this mean?

Get informed:
Participants will be informed on the obstacles for a near-zero waste Europe identified by experts in the field. Obstacles – and solutions – will be discussed among keynote speakers and researchers from the project. All registered participants will receive the obstacle analysis reports before the conference. In addition, registered participants before the conference the draft roadmaps that will be used as key input for a new European Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda on waste.

Be involved:
The roadmaps will be discussed on the second day of the conference. In three targeted workshops - ICT-waste, End-of-Life vehicles and packaging waste – participants are provided the opportunity to reflect on and contribute to the drafting roadmaps. Your involvement in drafting the roadmaps is important because the Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda should be based on the experiences of all players in the field.

Take action:
NEW_InnoNET provides participants the opportunity to use the conference to start action. Participants can – together with project partners – organize workshop sessions at the conference. What do you want to discuss? What action do you want to take? And with whom? At present, several sessions are already being organized but please share your ideas with us.

Registration for the conference:
Registration for the conference is now possible via: http://www.pnoconsultants.nl/pno/media-en-contact/contact/stakeholder-co.... Please note, that only a limited number of participants can join. Early registration is therefore strongly advised. The conference will be free of charges.

What is New_InnoNet?
The H2020 project New_InnoNet deals with the implementation of the Circular Economy. Our aim is to develop a supported vision on the opportunities on which European Research and Innovation policy should be focussed. This will result in a European Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA), on three value chains or waste streams: ICT-waste, End-of-Life vehicles and packaging waste. Register yourself on the New_Innonet website (www.newinnonet.eu) and see how you can get more involved in the project and keep track of the upcoming conference and other activities.
