Digital intelligence for a circular economy

How can digital intelligence contribute to the transition to a circular economy? What role does data play in achieving this goal? CIRROD, GERAD and RRECQ invite you to explore these questions.

Registration

Focusing on data and tools to guide the transition to the circular economy, this free symposium presented by CIRROD, GERAD and RRECQ will be divided into four parts: two sessions where researchers will share their work, followed by a cocktail reception and a panel discussion where researchers, industrialists, municipalities and organizations will discuss their concerns and innovative solutions.

Program

The program is divided into two parts: the first, divided into two blocks, will feature scientific presentations and a cocktail reception for discussions with the researchers; the second, will be dedicated to a panel discussion open to the public.
