The Dutch Week of the Circular Economy taking place in the Netherlands, is the largest national inspiration and networking event for and by (beginning) circular entrepreneurs. A week full of talks, tours, excursions and workshops throughout the country and of course the presentation of the Circular Awards.
The Circular Economy Week is made possible by Circl Movement, an initiative of ABN AMRO. CIRCL acts as a connection point for scientists, experts, professionals, policy makers and organizations.
