Financing the shift to circular value chains

This session focuses on opportunities and challenges faced by corporations and MSMEs in shifting to circular value chains. It highlights how the financial sector and businesses connect, and how financial services—ranging from grants to blended finance to concessional loans and beyond—can accelerate action towards circularity. During the session the speakers will assess what is needed to enable the transition, identify existing barriers and leverage points, propose financing solutions and issue a call to action. Financiers and businesses can also network afterwards.  

Organisers: Circle Economy Foundation and IDB Invest, with the Federation of the Industries of the State of São Paulo and Sitra, the Finnish Innovation Fund
