The Power of Clustering in Advancing Circular Construction

The construction sector contributes around 9% of the EU’s GDP and provides millions of jobs across Europe, while simultaneously generating more than one-third of all waste in the European Union. Supporting the sector’s twin transition, digital and green, requires more than technological innovation alone. It requires coordinated ecosystems. Training builds capacity, but collaboration builds momentum. Circular construction can only scale when skilled professionals, innovato
