The Cantons of Lucerne and Zug plan to advance the transition from a linear to a circular economy and to establish a Central Switzerland Platform for Circular Economy that supports and involves the private sector, public administration, and society in this transformation. To this end, the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts (HSLU) and the Switzerland Innovation Park Central (SIPC) develop a detailed concept covering the establishment, operation, and strategic orientation of such a physical and digital platform.
The platform is envisioned as an impact model encompassing the interlinked phases Awareness, Empowerment, Promotion, and Implementation. Through targeted consulting, coordination, and networking between businesses, the public, research, and public administration, the platform will help to effectively initiate and anchor this circular process in the long term.
The goal is to create an agile and scalable platform that actively supports the transformation toward a circular economy in the Central Switzerland region (initially focusing on the Cantons of Lucerne and Zug) and promotes sustainable innovation. Website.
