Join us for an insightful workshop on navigating the Green Deal and leveraging opportunities for young and dynamic companies on November 9!

The Green Deal is a major change in the economic policy framework in Europe that will leave certain companies behind, but will also open up new opportunities for young and dynamic companies. The way companies are organized by the regulations expected in the coming years will change in many ways. As we move towards a decarbonized and circular economy, thousands of businesses as well as European consumers will face new challenges and needs for which young and dynamic organizations in particular can create solutions.

In this workshop, you will: 

• learn about the Green Deal and which regulations are in place and which to come

• learn to detect new opportunities and how to integrate green deal in future businesses
