What's Possible? Victorian Circular Activator Industry Showcase

When it comes to the service and hospitality industry, the level of waste being reproduced for landfill is rising and rising fast. From grassroots startups to established SMEs - who are the businesses trying to lighten the industry's footprint? This is your chance to meet them.

The Victorian Circular Activator (VCA) is holding an Industry Showcase on Wednesday 26th and Thursday 27th October. The showcase is a chance for products, services and initiatives to increase circularity in the hospitality and retail sectors to display their companies and engage with new audiences.

The showcase will be set up on Level One, 102 Victoria Street and will be attended by stallholders and members from the VCA and RMIT Activator teams for your browsing ease. Come and see the founders who are leading the way in making the service industry more circular. They are ready to share their leanings and projections for this area of the circular economy!

If you would like to display your venture, please fill out the form available on the event registration page.

Scheduled walk-throughs of the showcase (with one-minute pitches from the founders!) will happen on:

  • Wednesday, 26 October 2022 at 1:00PM AEDT 
  • Thursday, 27 October 2022 at 1:00PM AEDT

VCA Meet Up

We'll be wrapping up the two day showcase with a celebration of the VCA community and a chance to shape what's coming in 2023. On Thursday 27th from 5:30pm, we're throwing a party that brings everyone in the Victorian circular space together and you're invited. Expect to be fed, watered and an opportunity to interact with the VCA board to make your membership of the organisation even more rewarding for you in the new year. We'll announce speakers and activations on the night soon!
