Rx3 Sustainable Innovation Forum



Rx3 has been created as the new name for the Market Development
Programme. Rx3 "rethink recycle remake" works with a range of partners
and stakeholders to create markets for recycled materials.

Rx3 are running a Sustainable Innovation Forum on 27th April. This will
highlight thinking around sustainability and design, showcase recycled
products and ideas that unite social, economic and environmental values.
It will also highlight opportunities and provide information and support
to stakeholders and people who have an interest in the waste
marketplace. As part of the forum Rx3 are hosting two competitions.

60 Green Minutes
Participants need to demonstrate how waste can be recycled to make new
products. The core task is to demonstrate a business idea that takes
something disposable and transforms it into something of greater use and
value.

Turning Trash into Cash
Student competition for artwork, products and business ideas working
with waste materials.
