SUMMARY:Circular supply chains: Transforming critical materials into strategic advantage
DESCRIPTION:In this session at the Future of Utilities conference in Amsterdam\, Alberto Ogura\, Industry Decarbonisation Lead at Climate KIC\, will explore how circular supply chains can help address one of the major structural challenges facing the energy transition: access to critical raw materials. As demand grows for technologies such as batteries\, renewable energy infrastructure and electric mobility\, securing sustainable and resilient supply chains is becoming increasingly strategic. \n\n\n\nDrawing on Climate KIC’s work with partners including Pyxera Global\, the keynote will highlight how the Circular Supply Chain Coalition is expanding its activities in Europe. The initiative brings together industry actors to advance circular design\, resource recovery and new collaboration models that strengthen resilience while reducing environmental impacts. \n\n\n\nThe session will examine how circular approaches to materials management can turn resource constraints into opportunities for long-term innovation\, competitiveness and sustainability across Europe’s energy and industrial systems. \n\n\n\n\n\nClimate KIC is also offering an exclusive discount code for the event tickets only for Community members.

SUMMARY:Future of Utilities: Energy Transition Summit 2026
DESCRIPTION:The Future of Utilities: Energy Transition Summit 2026 brings together Europe’s energy leaders to discuss how to deliver the energy transition in today’s rapidly changing world. Taking place in Amsterdam on 18-19 March 2026\, the summit convenes grid operators\, utilities\, investors\, technology providers and policymakers to explore practical pathways for moving from climate ambition to implementation. \n\n\n\nParticipants will examine how Europe’s energy system is evolving in response to growing demand for renewable energy\, grid modernisation\, digitalisation and new forms of flexibility. Sessions will focus on scaling solutions across the energy value chain\, from financing generation and integrating storage to managing market volatility and accelerating industrial decarbonisation. \n\n\n\nClimate KIC is also offering an exclusive discount code for the event tickets only for Community members. Contact us to receive the code. \n\n\n\n\nCONTACT US\n\n\n\n\nClimate KIC will contribute to the programme through a keynote presentation titled “Circular supply chains: transforming critical materials into strategic advantage” by Alberto Ogura\, Industry Lead at Climate KIC\, on Day 2 (19 March).

SUMMARY:Transferring circularity to Eastern Europe: From strategy to real impact
DESCRIPTION:The conference “Transferring Circularity to Eastern Europe: From Strategy to Real Impact” will take place on 12 March 2026 in Ljubljana\, Slovenia\, in a hybrid format allowing both in-person and online participation. The event is organised by Interreg CENTRAL EUROPE\, a European Union funding programme that supports transnational cooperation across Central Europe. \n\n\n\nBringing together policymakers\, industry representatives\, innovation actors and project partners\, the conference will explore how circular economy principles can move from policy ambition to practical implementation across Eastern Europe. Participants will discuss how European cooperation\, digital tools and regional initiatives can help translate circular economy strategies into concrete action and strengthen more resource-efficient and resilient economic systems across the region. \n\n\n\nClimate KIC will contribute to the programme through a presentation by Marco Antonio Segovia Bifarini\, titled “Circularity in Eastern Europe: Strategic Outlook”\, which brings together policy experts\, regional actors and innovation leaders to discuss how circular economy strategies can be strengthened across the region. \n\n\n\nIn his contribution\, Marco will explore why circular economy in Eastern Europe requires a strategic rethink and what lessons can be drawn from the Deep Demonstration in Slovenia. This place-based initiative has brought together policymakers\, businesses and research organisations to experiment with new approaches to circular innovation\, helping to translate strategy into concrete action.
