A project to operate the circular transition
DigiCirc project's challenge is to leverage digital technology to transform our economy in order to turn it into more efficient and sustainable systems. To this end, the project will support digital innovative solutions to create new circular value chain.
The project

- Circular Cities : as major engines for economic growth, cities can drive the circular economy agenda forward to unlock economic, environmental and social benefits.
- Bioeconomy : keeping non-organic materials in the production of loop, displacing non-renewable materials and more effective utilisation and disposal of organic resources avoids negative environmental impact.
- Blue Economy : fostering sustainable development of maritime sectors, promoting growth and innovation, safeguarding healthy seas and their ecosystem.
Cap Digital being the first European cluster for ecological transition, we will run the open call dedicated to Circular Cities. It will be opened on the next 1st November. More info to come
