The circular economy as a key strategy for a climate neutral and resource efficient economy.

Circular Economy:
Driver of innovation

We consume too many resources. We – globally speaking, but also as each and every person in Germany. And that also goes, of course, for business. Awareness of the planetary boundaries is growing. We are more conscious consumers today than we were 10 years ago, and that is a good thing. However, much remains to be done to achieve truly sustainable circular economies. With our CEWI project, we provide practical, concrete examples of how the circular economy can contribute not only to resource efficiency, but also protect the climate, drive innovation, and become a sustainable and successful business model.

CEWI – those are concepts and pilot projects led by business that build on the sense of responsibility and problem-solving skills of German businesses while activating their powers of innovation.
