On 14 February 2023, our colleague Dr. Ewa Harlacz and our scholarship holder Jule Jeschonowski-Papstein attended the third meeting of the exchange platform. ‘Circular B2B Electronics’. The network meeting was hosted by HARTING. A total of 28 representatives from manufacturers, waste disposal companies, universities and research institutions, networks and associations from the region and North Rhine-Westphalia, as well as the North Rhine-Westphalia Ministry of the Environment and Ministry of Economic Affairs, took part in the network meeting.

A tour of the waste management facilities in Espelkamp and the Hennemann recycling company was followed by keynote speeches and joint discussions. The focus was on the question of how materials, electronic components and products from the business-to-business sector can be managed more effectively in cycles in the future and thus used more economically and efficiently.

We would like to thank you for the exciting discussions and look forward to the next event.
