On 5 June 2025, BATMASS will join forces with three other European projects — REVITALISE, REUSE and RENOVATE — to host in Brussels (and online) the high-level event ‘FUTURE4BATT – From Waste to Value: Building Europe’s Circular Battery Ecosystem’.
This event also marks the launch of the first Circular Battery Valley (CBV) Interregional Forum, a key initiative of the BATMASS project to connect strategic actors along the entire battery value chain, from production to recycling. The forum seeks to activate interregional collaborations aimed at devising and driving innovation investment projects in the field of circular batteries.
A forum to connect, co-create and boost
The event will combine:
• A round table with institutional, industrial and scientific representatives that will officially kick off the CBV Interregional Forum.
• A participatory Workshop where different stakeholders will co-create an action plan to overcome challenges in the battery end-of-life (EOL) value chain.
Why attend?
- Get insights into the evolving European regulatory framework for batteries.
- Engage with leading experts and stakeholders from across the battery value chain.
- Discover results and tools from pioneering EU-funded projects.
- Contribute directly to shaping future interregional collaboration for sustainable battery ecosystems.
Who should attend?
This event is especially relevant for:
- National and regional policymakers
- Battery producers, recyclers and repurposers
- Technology developers and research centres
- EU project consortia
- Investors and innovation agencies
