At this Exploration Workshop Series with the support of EY & Microsoft we want to connect, enrich and disrupt with ideas from the ecosystem to create collaborative projects that will make Switzerland and the Swiss economy more resilient, stronger and sustainable in the long run.
The aim of the Exploration Workshop Series focusing on Technology enabled Sustainability & Circular Economy aims at identifying synergies and alliances between the participating organizations to enable us to jointly develop potential project ideas for solutions and to unleash the potential of technology and digital for a more sustainable development in Switzerland and beyond.
Circular Economy in Urban Areas | Wednesday, March 17th, 13:30 - 15:30 ONLINE
Using key insights from the national initiative Circular Cities Switzerland (including actual material flow analyses), Marco Grossmann from ecos would like to explore ICTs potential contribution and develop concrete project ideas to support the circular transition in Switzerland. Public circular procurement has been identified as direct leverage point for cities in collaboration with companies to propel innovative solutions.
- Challenge 1: given the most relevant material flows in Swiss cities, how may Technology and Digital best support a more sustainable and circular management of these flows?
- Challenge 2: how may Technology and Digital actors and public authorities jointly use public circular procurement to create innovation partnerships?
