The transition to a circular economy requires significant investment, and expanding capacity across reuse, repair, and recycling (3 R’s) needs targeted funding and long-term financial backing.
This session follows the official launch at RWM of our landmark report, authored by Resource Futures, in partnership with CIWM and the Circular Economy Institute.
Our experts will collectively explore the report’s key findings and strategic recommendations in detail. From navigating complex policies like Extended Producer Responsibility (pEPR) to managing high setup and running costs, making circular projects financially viable remains a key challenge.
This webinar provides strategic insights into the financial, policy, and market mechanisms needed to unlock scalable investment across circular infrastructure.
What we’ll cover:
-
Key market drivers and barriers impacting investment in 3R’s infrastructure
-
Navigating policy dynamics, including pEPR, Plastic Packaging Tax (PPT) and WEEE regulations
-
Balancing setup costs and running expenses to boost investment returns
-
Case studies and strategic interventions for high-impact material streams (Plastics, EEE, and Packaging)
Speakers:
- Dan Cooke, CIWM
- Susan Evans, Resource Futures
- Max Goodliffe, Resource Futures
For local authority leads, waste managers, resource operators and sector investors, this session offers essential clarity on de-risking infrastructure projects and driving long-term circular capacity.
