How can digital solutions help us better understand material flows, use resources more efficiently, and close loops? As part of “Climate Protection Through Digitalization,” we would like to explore these questions together with you and, in doing so, open up new perspectives on the connection between digitalization, sustainability, and the circular economy.

Together with our cluster partners, the Smart Industries Network and food.net:z, we invite you to an inspiring exchange on Friday, October 9, 2026, featuring insights from business, industry, and academia.

Who should attend this event?

Companies, startups, research institutions, municipalities, and clusters that are engaged in digitalization, sustainability, resource and energy efficiency, the circular economy, and circular business models—or that wish to develop or efficiently implement these concepts.

What can you expect?

Keynote:

Dr. J, Head of Product Management and Engineering & Innovation at HD, will provide insights into “Resource-Efficient Circular Economy in the Building Materials Industry” and demonstrate how digitalization and innovative approaches can help conserve resources and close loops.
