Description
As Europe advances towards strategic autonomy in semiconductor manufacturing, ensuring a secure Europe with a stable and sustainable supply of critical raw materials is essential.
This event, organised within the framework of the CLOSER I3 Project, will explore how regional development and circular economy strategies – such as urban mining, advanced recycling technologies, and industrial symbiosis – can reduce reliance on imported raw materials and strengthen Europe’s position in the global microelectronics sector.
Bringing together key stakeholders from industry, academia, and policymaking, the event will highlight best practices in circular supply chains, discuss policy recommendations, and showcase international and interregional collaboration efforts to drive a more resilient and sustainable semiconductor industry.
By leveraging secondary raw materials from e-waste and industrial residues, Europe can reinforce its industrial leadership and pave the way for a greener, more self-sufficient future in microelectronics production.
