It is structured into five tasks: developing replication blueprints (T6.1), conducting market analysis and business planning (T6.2), translating these into financial and investment plans (T6.3), managing exploitation and IPR (T6.4), and building a FAIR, user-oriented knowledge ecosystem (T6.5). Methodologically, WP6 follows a two-step approach: initial top-down projections as strategic hypotheses, followed by bottom-up validation using real pilot data to deliver evidence-based business

Across Europe, regions are striving to shift from linear to circular models \u2014 but progress remains slow. Despite local successes, circular economy efforts often stay small-scale, fragmented, and isolated. Regional ecosystems still face systemic barriers: limited cooperation among actors, weak governance structures, and a lack of shared data and tools. At the same time, Europe\u2019s digital and green transitions must advance together. Artificial intelligence, IoT, and digital twins can accelerate circular innovation \u2014 yet these technologies are rarely connected to real regional needs. CSSBoost addresses this twin transition gap, bringing together digital innovation, circular principles, and social collaboration to overcome the barriers that hold regions back from achieving a truly circular future. Our Approach! CSSBoost accelerates Europe\u2019s transition to a circular economy by connecting technology, policy, and people. We bring together cutting-edge digital innovation, circular principles, and social collaboration to build integrated, data-driven solutions that work across entire regions \u2014 not just single projects or companies. At the heart of our work is the creation of Circular Systemic Solutions (CSS) \u2014 multi-actor models that link businesses, public authorities, researchers, and citizens around shared circular goals. CSSBoost designs, tests, and scales these solutions through five regional pilots, focusing on sectors such as food, water, plastics, and mobility. Each pilot acts as a living lab, co-developing practices that can be replicated across Europe. Our approach also fosters cross-border collaboration, citizen engagement, and knowledge exchange \u2014 ensuring that successful circular models can spread beyond individual regions and drive Europe\u2019s wider sustainability transformation. Transition Blueprint WP6 of the CSSBoost project (\u201cSolution Uptake, Replication, Business Planning and Exploitation\u201d, months 4\u201342) aims to consolidate pilot results into a coherent strategy that enables the uptake, replication, and scaling of circular systemic solutions across Europe, while addressing barriers and securing market potential. It is structured into five tasks: developing replication blueprints (T6.1), conducting market analysis and business planning (T6.2), translating these into financial and investment plans (T6.3), managing exploitation and IPR (T6.4), and building a FAIR, user-oriented knowledge ecosystem (T6.5). Methodologically, WP6 follows a two-step approach: initial top-down projections as strategic hypotheses, followed by bottom-up validation using real pilot data to deliver evidence-based business models and investment plans. https:\/\/youtu.be\/zDHKflAL-tI Our Consortium Our Pilots Agricultural, Livestock and Food Processing By-Products Valorisation CSS Crete, Greece Water Reuse and Nutrients Recovery CSS Marche, Italy Conventional Plastics and Bioplastics Recycling CSS North Black Forest, Germany Public Transport Vehicle Recycling and Valorisation CSS Lisbon, Portugal Interregional Multi-National Value Chain CSS Pilot Regions 1-4 in concert &amp; EU Preview Only Our project in numbers! 0 \u20ac EU Funding 0 Consortium Members 0 M Duration of the Project Subscribe for our upcoming Newsletters Subscribe You have been successfully Subscribed!
