ISWA is pleased to announce that RECLAIM Project will participate in the EU Green Week 2025 in Brussels, a prestigious European annual environmental conference, on June 4 as part of the REACT Cluster event titled “Circular Economy In Action: Rethinking Resources for a Greener Future.”

At the EU Green Week next month, several European Union-funded projects will band together to share their cross-sectoral knowledge on the practical application of digital and AI-driven solutions to enhance sustainability, reduce waste and drive strategic autonomy in industrial sectors.

The REACT cluster, which stands for “Resource Efficiency and Automation for Circular Transformation”, is an initiative of 8 EU-funded projects, namely ALCHIMIA, CLARUS, GRINNER, DARROW, iBot4CRMs, RECLAIM, TUBERS and Wood2Wood, to collaborate and enhance the collective outcomes of European Innovation projects. Out of the 8 projects, ISWA is leading the communication and dissemination for 3 – iBot4CRMs, RECLAIM, and Wood2Wood.
