Description
The event 'L'Horta Nord Circular: opportunities to boost industrial synergies for a sustainable future' highlights the local potential in L'Horta Nord (València) to accelerate the transition towards circular economy practices within industrial parks. Part of EU Green Week 2025, this initiative aims to promote collaboration between companies, municipalities, and regional institutions, leveraging existing resources for mutual benefit.
Participants will gain insights into the concept of Industrial Symbiosis, a collaborative model where companies exchange surplus resources, such as waste, fluids, or emissions, to optimise production, reduce operational costs, and minimise environmental impact. Practical examples from regional case studies will showcase tangible economic, environmental, and social advantages achieved through successful implementation.
The agenda includes thematic working groups designed to foster dialogue and develop actionable solutions around three critical topics: introducing sustainable company canteens within industrial parks, circular economy strategies in the textile value chain, and revaluing plastic waste as resources rather than residues. Participants will actively explore collaboration opportunities, municipal support measures, and strategies for effective implementation.
This gathering presents a unique platform to build lasting connections among local stakeholders, driving innovation, enhancing regional economic resilience, and creating quality employment opportunities aligned with sustainability goals. Through focused discussions and practical examples, the event seeks to establish the foundation for a thriving, circular, and sustainable industrial ecosystem in L'Horta Nord.
