IV. CIRCULAR ECONOMY WEEK OF TÜRKİYE

STEP INTO THE SUSTAINABLE FUTURE!

In order to accelerate our country's transition to a circular economy, we are organizing the fourth edition of the Turkey Circular Economy Week within the framework of the collaboration developed by DCube Circular Economy and Sustainability (DCube), Business for Goals Platform (B4G), and Business and Sustainable Development Association (SKD Turkey).

Organized with the valuable contributions of Istanbul Chamber of Industry and Denizli Chamber of Industry, the IV. Turkey Circular Economy Week will take place in Istanbul and Denizli between April 8 – 10, 2025

Taking place immediately after the closing meeting of the Turkey Circular Economy Action Plan, the IV. Turkey Circular Economy Week will provide an opportunity to evaluate developments in the national agenda, while also serving as a platform to discuss the latest developments in the European Union.

This event aims to bring the important steps taken in Turkey’s green transformation process into focus from a circular economy perspective. It will facilitate the restructuring of industrial value chains, production and service designs, and consumption habits based on circular economy principles.
