On 10 October 2025, the flagship workshop “Re-valuing resources: Cross-sectoral circular solutions for a sustainable future” took place at Sustainable Places 2025 in Milan. This hybrid event brought together researchers, innovators, industry leaders, and citizens committed to advancing Europe’s circular and regenerative transition.
The workshop showcased practical solutions and real-world demonstrations proving how circular principles can transform the way we produce, use, and revalue resources, across islands, urban, and rural territories.
💡 Key Highlights
- 8 Horizon Europe projects presented innovative approaches: ReBoat, Theseus Hub4Circularity, DeremCo, Wood2Wood, YouRban, SUM4Re, ICONIC, and STORCITO
- Live demonstrations and pilot experiences showing circular practices in action
- Dynamic exchanges on co-design, digitalisation, climate resilience & resource management
- Replicable solutions ready to inspire local authorities, SMEs, and communities across Europe
Through dialogue and collaboration, the session emphasised how circular models can reshape linear value chains into regenerative systems, overcoming technical, social, and policy challenges along the way.
A heartfelt thank you to all participants, speakers, and project partners for turning this event into a milestone for knowledge sharing and collaboration within Europe’s circular innovation ecosystem.
