Zero Waste in Industrial Networks (ZeroWIN) Vision Conference

July 06, 2010

Location: Southampton, UK
Info: www.zerowin.eu

Keynote speakers will discuss the challenge facing industry to eliminate waste and become more sustainable through harnessing the potential of industrial networks. Workshops will focus on the ambitions and challenges of pursuing a zero waste vision – how can entrepreneurship in industrial networks eliminate waste?

Participants will learn about the project’s approach and work programme over the next 4 years. ZeroWIN can potentially influence 3 million companies and is already working with 16 industrial partners large and small, notably in the high-tech/electronics, construction, automotive and photovoltaic sectors.

We would like you to have the opportunity to influence the ZeroWIN vision and share in the outcomes, ranging from practical assessment tools and eco-design implementation in nine product cases to engaging with policy processes, each contributing to achieving best practice in GHG, waste and water reductions.

The conference programme, registration form, and our vision report will be sent out late March/early April. Please note there will be no fee for attending the Vision Conference. A limited number of places will be available to join our optional drinks reception and conference dinner in the evening, at a reasonable cost.

Who should attend?

Industry representatives (small or large), entrepreneurs and policymakers with an interest in reducing waste, GHG emissions and water use, in particular those working in our focus sectors: electronics, construction, automotive or photovoltaic*, who can contribute to, transfer and apply the work and results of the project.
