Following its successful debut in March 2025, the date for the next Circular Valley Convention (CVC) is now set. On March 11 and 12, 2026, the Areal Böhler in Düsseldorf will once again be turning into the meeting place for experts from business, science, politics, and society committed to actively shaping the transition to a circular economy. The concept of the CVC combines a high-level conference program with a hands-on expo and exclusive networking formats. The focus lies on practical solutions for circular value creation, cross-sector collaboration, and innovations across all phases of the product and material life cycle.
At the Circular Valley Convention 2025, renowned speakers and exhibitors presented visionary strategies, innovative approaches, and practical applications - from design and sustainable materials to digital tools and advanced recycling technologies. Across three stages, keynotes, panels, and masterclasses offered a high-caliber program featuring more than 200 top speakers, including Prof. Holger Hanselka (Fraunhofer), Katja Busch (DHL), Ulrike Sapiro (Henkel), and Prof. André Bardow (ETH Zurich).

The Circular Valley Convention aims to further strengthen its position as the leading international trade fair for the circular economy. This includes the expo as a growing marketplace for circular solutions, complemented by the conference, which serves as a content hub bringing together relevant content and current developments in the circular economy. Networking and the high quality of exhibitors and participants will continue to play a central role. Going forward, the innovative convention concept places even greater emphasis on collaboration across industries and along the value chain, practical best-practice examples, and interdisciplinary exchange - making it a place where pioneers of the circular economy present tangible solution approaches.
