Representatives from the Nordic region join forces to accelerate Nordic Circular Economy at the World Circular Economy Forum in Helsinki. The coalition aims to establish a new platform that will increase knowledge sharing about circular economy between the Nordic markets, while exploring needs and opportunities for specific circular economy projects in the Nordics. The coalition is modelled from the best practice from Holland Circular Hotspot. Stakeholders and actors interested in joining the coalition are invited to join the first official meet up.
