Guide on circular transformation

Developed by Professor Rainer Pamminger and Philipp Feutchter, the guide presents changes in European legislation and identifies circularity as a factor in developing company competitiveness. It illustrates best practices based on the experiences of European companies. It describes a set of tools in design, materials, and business models that can be implemented today.

Download the guide if you are implementing circular solutions for your company.

Ecodesign

This tool helps entrepreneurs understand how changes in EU law impact their strategic decisions. If you operate in this sector, check out the virtual map to track ongoing changes and ensure your actions are legal.

The tool was designed by a team from the Chamber of Commerce in Slovenia. We are sharing it in partnership, having had the pleasure of testing it with businesses, including Marine Electricity.

Ecodesign was developed as part of the CIRCOTRONIC project to support the electrical and electronics sector on its path to sustainable development.

Desk Research

Design research is not just about data analysis, but also the art of asking questions and discovering new paths. Designers seek inspiration in literature, nature, material analysis in the workshop, or at a landfill. Sometimes they also use scientific methods. Each of these methods leads to different conclusions. The research process is all about process and the ability to draw on both available knowledge and tools.

This material will show you how to structure your research process and find space for both ignorance and creative discovery. Download the file and discover how to consciously develop your own research project.
