The CIRCLE Annual Meeting 2026 is underway at The Loop in Lund, bringing together researchers and colleagues for a day of presentations, discussions, and networking.

Held in Lund's innovation district, the annual meeting provides an important opportunity to take stock of ongoing research, exchange perspectives, and strengthen collaborations across disciplines and research areas.

Throughout the two days, CIRCLE members are engaging with a range of topics central to the centre's research agenda, including regional development, innovation systems, sustainability transitions, collaborative governance, and transformative change. The programme features both presentations and panel discussions, encouraging dialogue on some of the key societal challenges and opportunities shaping the future.

While the discussions offer valuable insights, the annual meeting is also an opportunity to connect in person. Bringing colleagues together in the same space creates opportunities for new conversations, knowledge sharing, and relationship-building that support CIRCLE's research community.
