Project EFFECTIVE is a collaboration of 12 companies and organizations to produce bio-based fibres and plastics for large consumer products by using renewable feedstocks and innovative technologies.  The main purpose of the final event is to present key activities and results of the Effective project, proving the possibility to produce innovative biobased materials that can potentially be commercialized in the future.

The final stakeholder event will take place in the EU House in Ljubljana, Slovenia, and is dedicated to celebrating innovation in sustainability and circularity. We will present the outcomes of the project and discuss how we can co-create the future. The project is ending, but this might just be the beginning!

• Hosts:  Jerneja Jug Jerše, EU Commission office Slovenia, & Edi Kraus, Effective project Coordinator 

• Key-note speaker: Janez Potočnik, Ph.D., European Commissioner for  Environment 2009‒2014, partner at Sistemiq (virtual presence)
