Viewing Event & Discussion of Circular Economy System Reset

The Disruptive Innovation Festival 2018 is the world's largest online festival of ideas organized by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation. Our Vienna event is part of a global initiative, where events are taking place at throughout the world. This event will enable you to be part of the DIF Festival and expand your knowledge around what circularity really means and the circular initiatives taking place globally. It is also an opportunity to socialise with other circular economy professionals in Vienna and brainstorm future projects.
