What is going on in plastics research?

Organised by: Eventet genomförs i samverkan mellan Vinnova, Naturvårdsverket, Formas, Energimyndigheten, Stiftelsen för strategisk forskning samt de strategiska innovationsprogrammen BioInnovation, LIGHTer samt RE:Source.
Mäster Samuelsgatan 56, 111 21 Stockholm, Sweden, mötesrum Nobel Thu 29 Sep 2022 at 13:00-17:00

On Thursday, September 29, you are welcome to take part in the results from a large number of research projects in the area of plastics. We address actors who work with and are affected by plastic in various ways - for example in production, use, recycling and regulation but also other areas.

This web page has been machine translated. If there are any uncertainties, please refer to the Swedish text.

Between the hours of 13-17, you who work with plastics in some way will get an insight into what is happening in research and what is going on.

It is possible to participate on site at Vinnova at Mäster Samuelsgatan 56 in Stockholm or digitally. Afternoon coffee is served.

The day is organized by Vinnova, Swedish Water, Formas, the Foundation for strategic research, RE:Source, Lighter, BioInnovation, the Energy Agency and the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency.
