Description
Join us for an insightful event where industry leaders and innovators come together to discuss the future of competitive and sustainable plastics in Europe. This event will delve into the key themes necessary to drive the transition from ideas to reality in the realm of circular plastics.
The event will address scaling up circular plastics, exploring what is needed to move from ideas to reality in Europe, the key challenges to overcome to reach production at scale, European start-ups innovating on non-fossil feedstock sources for plastics, bridging the cost gap and how we can make sustainable plastics cost competitive, where plastics can learn from other sectors, and what the plastics value chain needs to reach circularity and net zero in a challenging global economic situation, all while ensuring a global level playing field.
Speakers (all speakers subject to final confirmation) include Virginia Janssens, Managing Director, Plastics Europe (moderator), Alex Hogan, CEO, Vioneo, Yvonne van der Laan, EVP Circular and Low Carbon Solutions, LyondellBasell, Rob Ingram, CEO, Ineos Olefins & Polymers Europe, Alexandre Kremer, Co-founder and Co-CEO, Radical Dot, and TBC, SystemIQ.
The event may be accompanied by an exhibition entitled 'Plastics Delivering the EU Clean Industrial Deal', demonstrating recent innovations in sustainable plastics across the European plastics value chain, and the contribution of plastics to strategic EU industries, including automotive, medical devices, building and construction, and defense.
Don't miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights and be part of the conversation shaping the future of competitive, sustainable plastics in Europe.
