In collaboration with Guidehouse, we have launched the “Circular Economy Action Plan (CEAP) 2020 – Summary for business” to support business assess the implications of the CEAP 2020 on their activities and facilitate their transition to circular economy.

This business summary focuses on key developments and implications of this landmark publication for businesses. By understanding the policy outcomes intended by the CEAP 2020 and how it relates to the EU Green Deal, business stakeholders can move forward and further shape the circular economy policy dialogue so that it is supportive and effective for businesses.

The transition to a circular economy represents a fundamental shift in the development of business and economic opportunities. The CEAP 2020 aims to accelerate and scale up action to support the circular economy. New circular economy policies will shape future sustainable products, empower consumers, and reduce waste generation, with a particular focus on high-impact sectors such as textiles, construction, and electronics.
