Location: Toronto Board of Trade Event Space | Toronto, Ontario
Date: June 19-20, 2023
Presented by Circular Economy Leadership Canada (CELC) and the Circular Innovation Council (CIC), in collaboration with other Canadian circular economy leaders, the Canadian Circular Economy Summit provided an opportunity for Canadian circular economy (CE) champions to come together in-person, share leading efforts and activities, and to identify the solutions, innovations, and cross-sectoral collaborations necessary for accelerating the transition to a CE in Canada.
Given the urgency of environmental issues and Canada’s net zero targets, the Canadian Circular Economy Summit explored the role of the CE in addressing Canada’s environmental commitments and create and foster intersections between CE strategies and Canada’s climate change and biodiversity agendas.

WHAT TO EXPECT
This two-day in-person event featured a combination of awareness / education, action, and outcome-focused workshops and other interactive formats.
The CE Summit agenda built on the key directions emerging from research, publications, a number of outcome-focused workstreams, and other activities underway to advance the CE in Canada. CE Summit participants will have the opportunity to interact and contribute to a forward-looking action plan and advocacy agenda.
To extend reach and impact, partners and networks held pre- and post-summit regional and sector-specific events to build on, inform, and continue momentum. As well, post-summit advocacy and education opportunities are being developed to advance CE Summit outcomes.
