The Circular Laboratory (Den Cirkulære Laboratorium)

Goal
The laboratory will provide at least 200 young entrepreneurs with the opportunity to lead the way and develop ambitious circular solutions of the future. Circular solutions are, for instance, about designing long-lasting products or developing new models for rights of use of a product. The main platform of the laboratory will be Roskilde Festival.The ambition is to help green entrepreneurs of the future on their way by creating a framework where they can challenge and test their concrete solutions in a flexible and huge laboratory filled with people and possibilities. At the same time, the laboratory's solutions should raise awareness of green behaviour among festival participants and contribute to a significant reduction in festival waste.
