The Walloon Public Service is pleased to invite you to the third edition of the Meet & Greet, on September 15, 2026 in Namur. This event is part of the Responsible Public Procurement Strategy and Circular Wallonia.

This annual event aims to create concrete connections between public buyers and companies offering circular solutions. It provides an opportunity for inspiration, the exchange of best practices, and the building of new, sustainable collaborations to support the circular transition in Wallonia.

Certain categories of purchases linked to Circular Wallonia's priority value chains will be the subject of particular focus during the event, allowing for in-depth discussions on strategic themes for the region.
