RESPECT x FREE4LIB Final Event

After four years of groundbreaking research, the RESPECT and FREE4LIB projects are coming together for a joint final event on 2 June 2026 in Brussels — and registrations are now open.

Taking place at the Renaissance Brussels Hotel and accessible online, the full-day event will bring together researchers, industry professionals and policymakers to reflect on four years of advances in sustainable battery recycling and critical raw material recovery.

The programme will feature presentations of key project results, expert panel discussions, and dedicated networking opportunities — offering attendees a unique chance to engage with the latest developments in the battery value chain and connect with the wider European research community.

Whether you are working in academia, industry or policy, this event is your opportunity to discover what RESPECT and FREE4LIB have achieved — and to help shape the conversations that will define what comes next.
