CircularTech Forum 2025-DPP in Action

Unlocking a Trusted, Data-Driven Circular Economy

The digital circular economy is evolving rapidly, driven by transformative EU policies and technological innovation. With the EU Green Deal, the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), and sector-specific mandates setting the pace, industries across Europe are rethinking how products are designed, tracked, and circulated. From batteries, textiles, and electronics to buildings, plastics, and moreDigital Product Passports (DPPs) are emerging as a key enabler of transparent, data-driven, and circular value chains.

Join at CircularTech Forum 2025, the leading event for advancing DPP implementation and cross-industry collaboration. Connect with over 350 pioneers and changemakers from across the circular economy ecosystem—manufacturers, recyclers, raw material suppliers, policymakers, green tech innovators, standardization bodies, and thought leaders. Together, we’ll explore how to move from regulation to real-world solutions and from pilots to scale.

This year, the forum takes a bold step forward with a sharper focus on visible, practical progress in DPP implementation. It’s not just about exploring the future of circularity—it’s about delivering real impact today. With an inspiring lineup of top speakers, groundbreaking technologies, and high-level discussions, CircularTech Forum 2025 is designed to foster clarity, alignment, and action across sectors.
