How can we turn one person's waste into resources for others? How can we pool flows, share skills, and create new local economic opportunities? ♻️
The SyMBIOTe micro-project (Belgian-French Synergies and Pooling for Industry and Resource Optimization in the Cross-Border Territory), supported by the Interreg France–Wallonie–Vlaanderen program, brings together Picard Wallonia and the City of Roubaix around a common ambition: to accelerate the ecological transition through industrial symbiosis.
