Is circularity the next frontier for German engineering?
From industrial automation to in-vehicle electronics, high-performance systems depend on complex, globally sourced materials. This creates serious challenges for sustainability and supply security - but also opens new opportunities for circular strategies that extend product lifespans and recover critical resources.
In this episode, speakers from manufacturing, mobility, and tech explore how German industry can integrate circularity into core business functions including R&D, procurement, and governance.
Recorded live at the CIRCULAR REPUBLIC FESTIVAL 2025, the panel brought together Ansgar Kriwet from Festo, Eva Riesenhuber from Siemens, Patric Tullio from BMW Group, Lukas Biedermann from SPARETECH, and Niclas-Alexander Mauss from CIRCULAR REPUBLIC to discuss what circular electronics and automation could mean for the future of German engineering.
This episode is part of our CIRCULAR REPUBLIC FESTIVAL 2025 series, created in partnership with CIRCULAR REPUBLIC to bring you the key debates and insights from this year’s festival.
