Bridging the Investment Gap for a Circular Economy

Circular economy solutions are on the rise—but the transition is still too slow. A key bottleneck? Financing. Despite growing awareness, circular business models often face significant barriers in accessing the capital they need to scale.
Join us for a compelling session in our Innovations and Solutions webinar series as we delve into the results of PREVENT Waste Alliances’ two-part study on Financing Circularity. The study explores systemic financing challenges and offers practical recommendations to unlock capital flows for circular solutions in low- and middle-income countries.
In this session, we’ll explore:
- Why circular economy models remain underfunded, despite their economic and environmental potential
- Key barriers for financial institutions and entrepreneurs and how to overcome them
- Proven instruments and enabling frameworks that can bridge the financing gap
With deep expertise in sustainable finance, circular business models, and international cooperation, our speakers Julia Körner and Dr. Christopher Speier from the GIZ Global Programme Go Circular will walk us through concrete insights from the study and outline actionable paths forward for policy, finance, and implementation actors alike.
Don’t miss this opportunity to understand how finance can be a catalyst – not a constraint – for circular transformation in emerging economies.
