The WCEF presents the world’s leading circular economy solutions, bringing together business leaders, policymakers, and experts from around the globe. WCEF2025 will be hosted in São Paulo, Brazil, introducing new voices to the circular world, highlighting the crucial role of the circular economy in tackling climate change, and contributing to biodiversity protection.
During its ninth edition, WCEF will explore the potential of tropical solutions for sustainable growth, the power of the regenerative economy, and the strategies of a bioeconomy. Additionally, it will emphasize the indispensable role of the production sector in driving the transition to a circular economy.
WCEF2025 will take place at Ibirapuera Park, the most renowned park in Latin America’s largest city, São Paulo, from May 13 to 14, 2025. In addition, accelerator sessions will be hosted by WCEF partners on May 15 and 16, both online and at locations worldwide. And one of those partners is Circulair Friesland.
2025: 10 years of circular impact
In 2025, Friesland will celebrate a decade of progress as one of Europe’s frontrunners in circularity. Circulair Friesland has played a big role in this transition, fostering collaboration between businesses, governments, and knowledge institutions to accelerate the shift towards a circular economy. Over the past ten years, Friesland has become a living lab for circular innovation, with pioneering projects in construction, agriculture, manufacturing, and more. As the 10-year milestone approaches, Friesland will showcase its successes, share knowledge, and inspire others to join the movement toward a sustainable future.
