DRIVING PLASTIC CIRCULARITY: LINKING POLICY, TECH AND CONSUMERS.
17-18 March 2027, Antwerp, Belgium
DRIVING PLASTIC CIRCULARITY: LINKING POLICY, TECH AND CONSUMERS.

The Go Circular Summit is a business-focused event where industry leaders gather to address the core challenges in plastic recycling.

It covers the entire circular value chain of plastic, from brand owners to recycling companies, including the latest regulatory updates.

With the Global Plastics Treaty, PPWR, the Circular Economy Act, and other regulatory shifts, the plastic circular industry faces major changes—making it more important than ever to network and stay updated.
Through this circular plastics platform, we’re empowering the entire value chain to connect, stay informed, and drive progress toward a low-carbon, circular economy.

Raising the Bar: From Circularity Targets to Real-World Impact
Ambitions alone are not enough. This session looks at how brand owners and policymakers can bridge the gap between circularity targets and measurable, lasting impact. The discussion will focus on better implementation, accountability, and collaboration across the plastics recycling value chain.
