How can the private sector help accelerate the world’s transition toward a regenerative and circular economy? During this session, organised by The World Bank, we will discuss critical issues that can inform policymakers and stakeholders within the financial sector. We will explore 1) circular financing needs through the lifecycle of a business where start-ups, SMEs and corporates have different risk profiles and 2) the capabilities and constraints of finance providers such as venture capital capitalists, banks, institutional investors, as well as the role of government.

Despite recent legislative activity, it remains a question as to whether European economies are any closer to becoming circular and how we should specifically measure circularity. During this webinar, organised by Zero Waste Europe, we will explore when a circular economy could be achieved in Europe, how progress is measured, what policies local municipalities and national governments should focus on.
