Notice Information

Notice Title

Engage and mobilise SMEs in Upcycling Your Waste

Notice Description

Background: "Upcycling" is creating a new product of equal or greater value, from a waste product. This is to aid in creating a circular economy. The introduction of circular business cases to transform company waste into resources is a key enabler for the transition to a circular economy. Circular measures like re-design of products and processes and green procurement bring EU companies economic benefits of 3-8% of annual turnover. SMEs experience difficulties in adopting circular practices due to limited organisational, technical, and financial capacity. Only 25% of SME waste is currently repurposed. There is growing demand from SMEs for: - Knowledge of their waste streams and corresponding circular business cases - Solutions and tools to improve resource efficiency - Better cooperation among companies to organise sufficient scale and develop processes to upcycle waste Description of work: We are looking for a single agency/company that will help us engage and convince SMEs to participate in our next piloting phases. During the 6 months duration of this contract, there is also the expectation for the contractor to find new channels to expand and increase Upcycle Your Waste project and Norwich BID presence within the business community.
