On February 20 at 4:00 PM, as part of Madrid Design PRO, the PRO Talk Design and Circularity gathers IED Madrid and Estrella Galicia for a roundtable discussion on sustainability and circular economy. The session highlights initiatives developed by both entities, as well as their collaborative project.

The talk provides a space to share experiences, lessons learned, and challenges related to integrating sustainable criteria into creative and production processes. It explores how collaboration between academic institutions and industry can generate innovative solutions, foster new design methodologies, and actively contribute to the transition toward more responsible and circular models.
