The Nottinghamshire Circular Economy Symposium is a premier gathering of environmental strategists and local authority advisors dedicated to reimagining the lifecycle of resources within the county. In the wake of global supply chain shifts, the local authority's role in securing secondary material markets has never been more vital. This event bridges the gap between high-level policy and boots-on-the-ground execution, offering a comprehensive look at how Nottinghamshire can transition from a linear "take-make-dispose" model to a resilient, closed-loop system.
Participants will explore case studies from leading local authorities that have successfully implemented circular procurement policies and community-led repair initiatives. The symposium will feature dedicated tracks on "Urban Mining," focusing on the recovery of precious metals from electronic waste, and "Biogenic Loops," which examines the future of food waste anaerobic digestion within the East Midlands. This is a technical, research-backed event designed for those who manage the physical and financial infrastructure of waste.
Special attention will be given to the 2026/27 rollout of mandatory weekly food waste collections. We will discuss the logistical hurdles of vehicle procurement, route optimisation, and public engagement strategies. The symposium encourages a multidisciplinary approach, inviting urban planners and economic development officers to join waste professionals in discussions about how circularity can drive local job creation and carbon reduction targets. Be part of the conversation that shapes the future of Nottingham's resource management.
