Circularity awards

The dc Circularity Award’s were created to demonstrate the power of innovation and collaboration. There is no judging panel to impress, no sponsorship to buy, no black-tie dinner to travel to. 

The awards are based on criteria and presented to our collaborators annually, online and for free. There are four cate-gories.
