An interactive session will be held in the afternoon, with questions being asked by speakers.
The event will also cover key performance indicators (KPIs) for measuring circularity and share success stories about retaining embedded carbon through innovative circular materials in rail infrastructure.
It offers a prime opportunity for participants to interact, network, and exchange ideas with speakers, discuss case studies, best practices, nature-based solutions, solutions to inspire a circular economy, and sustainability, as well as meet industry experts from across the entire value chain, both upstream and downstream, who are driving the rail industry in its journey towards net-zero and 100 percent circular rail transport by 2030!
