Circular Economy

The Innovation Office of the University of Basel works closely with BaselCircular to build a thriving innovation ecosystem that connects talent, academia and industry, and to provide the tools and support needed for stronger entrepreneurship in the circular economy, including innovation coming from researchers.

​

The vision: together with BaselCircular we are shaping the transition to a circular economy, a system in which materials and products stay in circulation for as long as possible and waste is avoided, through efficient resource use, circular design and reduced import dependency.
