On 10 April 2025, the European Circular Economy Stakeholder Platform (ECESP) held a high-level stakeholder dialogue in Brussels. The purpose was twofold: it provided a forum for stakeholders to exchange views and offer feedback on ongoing legislative proposals, and it gathered valuable insights that will contribute to EU Green Week in June. This dialogue reaffirmed stakeholders' pivotal role in shaping the future of the circular economy across Europe.

More than 500 participants attended the event, which opened with high-level remarks and featured a plenary discussion on the Clean Industrial Deal, followed by four thematic breakout sessions focusing on the EU Bioeconomy Strategy and the Circular Economy Act.

This report summarises the discussions which took place.
