We launched our Nordic Circular Design Programme at the beginning of June. Our game-changing programme targets forward-thinking Nordic companies and visionary R&D professionals.
The programme is presented by four leading circular economy organisations: Ethica (Finland), Cradlenet (Sweden), Danish Design Center (Denmark), and Norwegian Center for Circular Economy (Norway) and co-financed by Nordic Innovation. This unique plan of action is designed to equip Nordic companies with the essential tools and knowledge to navigate the forthcoming Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR).
The programme builds on the successful Circular Design Programme executed in Finland in 2023 by Ethica Ltd and Design Forum Finland with funding from the Ministry of the Environment. 50 Finnish companies, such as, Stora Enso, UPM, ABB, Kiilto, Genelec, Luhta, Stockmann and Marimekko took part in the programme.
