This session will feature several interactive roundtables on how EU cities and regions can get the governance and finance right for the circular transition. This will connect like-minded cities, regions and partners to exchange experiences and lessons learned on the way to a circular economy. It will also introduce the main advisory and support activities offered in the Circular Cities and Regions Initiative (CCRI) framework – including the EIB’s Circular City Centre (C3) initiative and OECD’s support to CCRI Fellows. It will also propose a matchmaking session for city and region representatives to make connections with potential partners.
