Repair for SMEs Growth: Guiding SMEs through the Right to Repair Directive and Standards

As we navigate the landscape shaped by the new EU Right to Repair Directive and Ecodesign for Sustainable Products legislation,this event will delve into the opportunities and challenges that repairability presents for SMEs.

We will explore how standards can play a pivotal role in adopting repair-friendly practices while maintaining competitiveness and sustainability. Our discussions will cover the policy and legal context, the interplay with the Digital Product Passport, and the impact on the repair industry. We will engage with the Commission, Parliament, SME representatives and other stakeholders involved in standardisation and repair to explore strategies for empowering SMEs to meet repair requirements effectively.

Join us as we explore strategies to empower SMEs and foster a more sustainable economy.
