In great discussions with ZF, Vepa, Wilo, Dassault Systèmes, and Strong by Form, it became clear that the circular economy is not a “nice-to-have,” but a real business case and game changer for all companies that want to position themselves for the future.

Especially in times of crisis, when sustainability becomes a side issue in some boardrooms, these companies show why “circularity” is a top priority:

💡 Cost savings and resource efficiency
💡 Compliance with regulatory requirements and use of subsidies
💡 Competitive advantages and customer loyalty
💡 Innovation and future security
💡 Risk minimization and resilience

Top performers turn challenges into opportunities – and in doing so, position themselves not only sustainably, but also future-proof. My conclusion of the day: “When the circular economy is a top priority in companies, responsible growth is possible.”
