After two years of demanding and high quality implementation, the European project «RE-START – Reinforcing the circular economy model for START-ups» was successfully completed, with the DAISSy Research Group of the Hellenic Open University (HOU), as a Greek partner. The success of the project, in terms of achieving the objectives and indicators set, led to its recognition as good practice by the European programme ERASMUS+, being its funding source, receiving a score of 87/100.
In particular, the RE-START project encouraged and guided students as well as recent graduates of Higher Education Institutions, individuals with circular business ideas and potential start-uppers, to develop a circular start-up, or to transform their business idea into a circular one. In this context, the definition of circular start-ups was applied, which characterizes them as business models, based on the adoption of at least one of the Circular Economy strategies: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Recover and Regenerate.
