Watch again the transnational webinar “The future of ICT: Circular solutions for a post-Covid world”, delivered as part of ProCirc project, which took place on 18 March 2021. The event provided a greater understanding of the environmental and financial benefits that can be gained through adapting circular ICT procurement principles. Different case study examples were presented to illustrate how this can be put into practice.

The city of Malmö presented the barriers that a big organisation face to buy refurbished ICT and Glasgow Kelvin College introduced the lessons learnt when prolonging life of computers by upgrading hardware components.

Some of the takeaways are to make clear what the organisation objectives are (environmental, economic or social), to take all the lifecycle costs into consideration, to identify available alternatives to buy new, to use the existing experience available, to develop pilots, and to share and collaborate with other.
