The EU Textiles Ecosystem Platform invites all community members to join the plenary session of the second challenge campaign workshop, titled “Circular Economy and Innovation in the TCLF: business opportunities, scale-up waste management and bio-based materials”. 

This session will unite stakeholders from the TCLF sectors to share and reflect on:  

• emerging innovation and new business models for circular waste management;  
• emerging innovations in sustainable and bio-based raw materials

The plenary meeting, open to all stakeholders, will build on and share findings from a collaborative working session designed to gather practical, firsthand perspectives, experiences, ideas, and insights with Textiles Ecosystem experts. The collaborative session is designed to enable an in-depth exchange of knowledge and perspectives, and participation is limited to a selected group of invited stakeholders.

In the plenary setting, speakers will include representatives from the European Commission (DG GROW) and experts from Blumine, SDA Bocconi and CSIL.  

The event will take place in hybrid mode on 4 November 2026 at 17:00-18:00 CET at Ecomondo Trade Fair, Sala Noce, pad. A6, Rimini (Italy) and online via Zoom.
