DNC2020: Circular Economy in a Sustainable Society
@ Dresden
03.-05.06.2020
The Dresden Nexus Conference (DNC), since its inception in 2015, creates dialogue on nexus thinking that fosters research and capacity development activities in the sustainable and integrated management of water, soil, and waste. Water and soil play prominent roles as critical environmental resources in our societies and supply chains; the availability and quality of these resources are increasingly threatened by rapid urbanisation and modern lifestyles. The addition of waste as a resource makes DNC unique among other recent nexus discussions.
The third Dresden Nexus Conference (DNC2020) will take place 3–5 June 2020 under the theme “Circular Economy in a Sustainable Society”. Dresden is one of Germany’s most dynamic cities; the capital of Saxony is known for its indomitably pioneering approach, advancements in high technology, and strong research landscape.
DNC2020 aims to accelerate the transition to a more sustainable economy by focusing on identifying and discussing the concepts that nexus thinking offers to support the transition towards a circular economy. A Nexus Approach shares many synergies with the concept of a circular economy – a system that eliminates waste, keeps resources in use, and contributes to regenerating natural systems.

5th Int. Conference on New Business Models
@ Nijmegen, NL
01.-02.07.2020
Time flies: 2020 demarcates the first lustrum of the NBM conference series. The foundation of this series was laid in two workshops held at the Toulouse Business School (TBS, France) in 2014 and 2015. During these workshops, it became clear that thorough research was needed on the nature of business models. So, the idea of a 1st International conference was born: NBM @ Toulouse 2016. In this seminal conference, we focused on the issue of organising value creation in such a way that it addresses sustainable development. The main idea was to further explore the potential of a new generation of business models to contribute to societal challenges.
Almost five years down the line we have organised NBM @Toulouse( 2016) NBM@ Graz (2017), NBM @ Sofia (2018) and NBM @ Berlin (2019). Each of the NBM conferences followed a specific theme related to new business models. In hindsight, we see the 1st conference at the Toulouse Business School (TBS, France) as a try-out.

4th International Conference on New Business Models
@ Berlin
01.-03.07.2019
The 4th International Conference on New Business Models is hosted and supported by the Chair for Corporate Sustainability, ESCP Europe Berlin. It is devoted to bringing together both theoretical and practical insights from the fields of sustainable entrepreneurship, innovation, and transition, on the one hand side, and business models for sustainability, on the other hand side.
The aim of NBM @ Berlin 2019 is to discuss latest developments related to new business models for sustainable entrepreneurship, innovation, and transformation. Contributions to sustainable development, as demanded by the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), require entrepreneurship and innovation to foster transitions to future-fit societies that build on values such as responsibility and justice and that no longer destroy the ecological foundations on which they depend. This endeavour benefits from inter-, multi-, and transdisciplinary research. The domains of entrepreneurship, innovation, and transition studies – and particularly their intersections – hold huge potential to offer new approaches to tackle ecological and socio-economic challenges.
