Description
ready2LOOP is a research-based methodology manifested as an online platform, providing a science-based approach to help companies within industrial value chains to: (i) assess their readiness according to eight circularity dimensions; (ii) plan and execute a transition process, to improved circularity; and (iii) assist the transition through the selection of tools and methods at key points in the process.
Companies in industrial value chains can sign up/in and use the platform to assess their readiness for the transition to circular economy, prioritise focus areas, set a transition path and access tools to assist the implementation of circular initiatives.
By gathering aggregated and anonymised data regarding the readiness of companies to transition to circular economy, the ready2LOOP project uncovers key research findings for academia, industry, and policy-makers alike.
