2nd International Conference on a circular economy for plastics and textiles

Online – 15/12/2020 14:00

Covid-19 urged us to totally reschedule and reorganize the Second International Conference on a Circular Economy for Plastics and Textiles.

We are happy to present to you our adapted – yet equally interesting – program that will take place in a guaranteed corona proof online setting.

          

We are looking forward to welcoming you to this virtual conference.
