Abstract
The Eco-Innovation Observatory (EIO) is a EU-funded initiative collecting and analysing information on eco-innovation trends and markets in Europe. The 2016 report of the Eco-Innovation Observatory discusses the role of policy for eco-innovation in the circular economy transition. It looks at the present framework conditions fostered by European policies and how the circular economy concept is being embedded in a current policy context at the EU level and in the Member States. It also discusses the bottom-up and top-down circular economy challenges. 32 good practice examples of circular economy oriented eco-innovations and initiatives from the EU Member States are featuring in the report. They altogether provide evidence for the multifaceted and impressive eco-innovation potential of EU Member States. The report also presents the cross country comparison based on the recent eco-innovation indicators featured in the EU and Global eco-innovation scoreboards
