The programme is presented by five leading circular economy organisations: Programme leader Ethica (Finland), Cradlenet (Sweden), Danish Design Center (Denmark), Norwegian Center for Circular Economy (Norway), Festa (Iceland) and co-financed by Nordic Innovation. This unique plan of action is designed to equip Nordic companies with the essential tools and knowledge to get prepared for the forthcoming Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR).
