This event is organised as part of the strategic collaboration between Go Circular in Life Science (GCiLS), the FHNW School of Life Sciences and BaselCircular, which are working together to further develop the competence centre for circular economy in the life sciences.
The annual Go Circular in Life Science (GCiLS) event brings together life science companies from across the value chain and other relevant stakeholders involved in implementing the circular economy in the life sciences sector. It is a must for organisations actively involved in or researching circular solutions in the Swiss life sciences context.
The event combines practical contributions, case studies presented by companies and interactive formats. Participants exchange experiences and work together on specific topics and challenges with the common goal of bringing the circular economy in the life sciences closer to implementation.
