Madrid to host I Fòrum INNOTECH on waste management innovation

The Fundación Fórum Ambiental will host the I Fòrum INNOTECH in Madrid on October 21, 2026. The event aims to bring together administrations, managers, companies, and experts to discuss the future of waste management and the transition toward a circular economy.

Discussions will focus on converting innovation into practical industrial applications, such as increased material recovery, the production of new fuels, and enhanced industrial capacity. Key challenges include the recovery of strategic materials, the treatment of residual fractions, and the valorization of bio-waste. The forum will address how to scale technological solutions and ensure they reach plants, territories, and markets amidst evolving regulatory pressures and access to European competitiveness funds.
