LIFE projects networking event: Circular economy of waste, water & soil
Eurecat organizes the “LIFE projects networking event: Circular economy of waste, water & soil” on the 25th of November, with the aim of publicizing the progress and results achieved in the different LIFE projects on these topics and to offer the opportunity to network and share experiences related to the topics addressed. Eurecat has participated so far in more than 17 LIFE projects -leading 11 of them – during the last 9 years. And is keen to organize and promote networking opportunities like this to support the program.
The conference is aimed primary at companies, research centers and government agencies and will be attended by representatives of the European Commission and partners of the 10 projects presented at the Conference.
The Conference will include also an Innovation & Networking Workshop, with the aim to boost the networking and possible collaborations between the participants.
