Data-driven, circular solutions for your toughest sustainability challenges

Current

How the CSRD is reshaping circular economy disclosures, especially after the recent changes in the Omnibus package —and how your business ca

About this eventThe regulatory landscape for the circular economy is shifting. With the recent adoption of the CSRD Omnibus Package, the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) have undergone significant "quick fix" amendments. While the goal is simplification and burden reduction, the mandate for circular economy strategies is stronger than ever.The newest version of ESRS E5 (Resource Use and Circular Economy) shifts the focus from narrative-heavy reporting to high-impact quantitative metrics on resource inflows and outflows. It’s no longer just about compliance; it’s about understanding your material footprint to drive strategic resilience. But you can go further: the ESRS E5 and other new global standards can help you to explore new business models, improve supply chain resilience, and stimulate innovation across the value chain.Join us for an exclusive webinar, hosted by Current and with panelists from Circle Economy and EFRAG, where we bridge the gap between regulatory theory and business practice. We are honored to host two world-class experts who are at the very heart of these changes.<h3>Why Attend?</h3>In this session, we will move beyond the "checkbox" exercise of reporting to explore how circularity can become a competitive advantage. We will cover:<ul><li>The "Big Whales" Impact: Why the coverage of aprrox. 60-70% of EU material consumption by the ESRS E5 remains a priority despite scope changes.</li><li>Quantitative Precision: Understanding the move away from qualitative descriptions toward hard data on resource inflows and outflows.</li><li>The SME Ripple Effect: How the "Stop-the-Clock" directive and new supplier requirements mean even non-listed businesses must prepare for circular data requests.</li><li>Practical Implementation: A step-by-step roadmap to get your circular reporting off the ground.</li></ul> <h3>Who should join?</h3><ul><li>Sustainability Leads and CSR Managers</li><li>Finance and Reporting Professionals</li><li>Supply Chain and Procurement Officers</li><li>Consultants and ESG Analysts</li></ul>

Agenda

Opening & Welcome

We will discuss the ins and outs of the newest reporting standards, and specifically the importance of the CSRD. The key message will be that these reporting standards will also help businesses to move beyond mere compliance and turn a solid circular economy strategy into a competitive advantage, by enabling new business models, opening new markets, improve customer relations, and more. 

The "Why" of Reporting

Having worked with the financial industry for years, Marvin will explain how proper reporting to investors is crucial in growing the investments into the circular economy. We will ask him if he feels the Omnibus package is helping investors. 

Expert Interview: Marvin Nusseck from Circle Economy

Deep dive into the CSRD, and more specificallly the ESRS E5 standard and the recent Omnibus Package changes. We will end with a step-by-step guide for businesses on how to get started on a circular economy performance report! 

The "What" of ESRS E5

First-hand perspective from EFRAG on the importance of the ESRS E5, the recent simplification process of the standard and future outlook. We will ask Liad what he has learned from his interactions with businesses that are implementing the CSRD.
