The Circular City: How Circularity is Taking Shape Across Chicago

About this event

The Circular City will explore how circularity is already taking shape across Chicago — often in ways we don’t see. Through examples spanning business, infrastructure, and innovation, we’ll look at how waste becomes a resource, what it takes to move circular solutions from promising ideas to viable systems, and how we can scale what’s already working. The conversation will bring together perspectives from across the circular economy to make the concept tangible, accessible, and relevant to Chicago’s future.
