How to participate?
Want to take part in the world’s leading event for circular economy thinkers, doers and leaders? Explore different ways to participate!
All WCEF events are open to the public and non-commercial in nature. While the main forum only takes place once a year, there are many ways to participate throughout the year. And with a wide range of different events, there is something for everyone to choose from.
Join the annual forum
The annual forum presents the world’s best circular economy solutions and offers a place to build your network. The annual forum takes place over two days somewhere around the world. The annual WCEF consists of plenary and parallel sessions with keynote speeches, thematic discussions and networking opportunities such as an expo area.
Online participation to the annual WCEF is open to everyone, free of charge. In-person participation at the forum is by invitation only, processed through the co-hosts and partners, and constrained by venue capacity.

Take part in accelerator sessions
Accelerator sessions bridge the forum’s themes with the daily work needed for a circular transition. They are organised by our collaborators on the two days after each annual WCEF. These sessions can be held in person or online, and each requires a separate registration. The accelerator programme is announced 1-2 months prior to the annual WCEF.
Participate in side events
You don’t need to wait until the next annual forum to participate. WCEF Side Events are organised around the year by our collaborators. They address specific topics related to the circular economy and the role circularity plays in the economies of the future, as well as in the fight against climate change and the nature crisis.
