Herbsttagung 2020

Already in 2020, our Herbsttagung "Sustainable Production - Circular Economy as Enabler" took place, where speakers from industry and academia gave insights into the challenges but also opportunities of circular economic models. The presentations given can be found on Youtube under the following link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5qg4wMZJZ8&list=PLj5NzJQgxXRWYETrv4fUpsYJf76uq4SbI&index=2&t=4s).
