Q&A sessions Circular Economy for Dutch representations
Do you want to start or intensify circular economy activities in your country? Join one of the 1-hour Q&A sessions about Circular Economy by RVO and Holland Circular Hotspot (HCH) on November 25th and meet the team! With contributions from The Netherlands embassies in France, Australia and Slovakia.
In the Q&A sessions RVO and Holland Circular Hotspot will share their latest circular insights from The Netherlands that could help to create a fertile ground for circular investments and collaboration. Representatives of embassies and consulates will be present to talk about their experiences with international knowledge exchange and cooperation in the field of circular economy.
More importantly we want to know what your questions are and will do our best to answer them in the session. After the event we will make a document with the main questions & answers to spread through the embassy network.
This session is dedicated to and exclusive for Dutch embassies, consulates and other economic representations.

Circular Booster Programme
In 2020 in light of the impact of the pandemic Holland Circular Hotspot developed the online Circular Booster Programme, made to measure for Dutch representative offices. It consists of the following elements:
- two-pager country report with 3 selected circular opportunities areas,
- extended supportive webpage on HCH website,
- dedicated webinar on one of the opportunity areas in anticipation of future physical follow-up events.
The programme has been rolled out in Belgium, France and Germany and is now expanding to three other continents. See our Spotlight countries page for a preview or look back at the HCH country webinars:
