What is Circular Slovakia ?
Circular Slovakia is a public-private platform devoted to support the circular economy. The platform connects companies, government institutions, knowledge centers, business associations and non-governmental organizations in order to accelerate the transition to greener and circular Slovakia. The initiative was launched in December 2019, when the founding organizations, the Ministry of the Environment of the Slovak Republic, the Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the Slovak Business Agency, the Institute of Circular Economics, the Slovak Environment Agency, PricewaterhouseCoopers Slovakia and the Dutch Chamber of Commerce committed to create a public-private platform for circulation economy.
