Key details
The Foundation Impulsa has approved its 2026 Action Plan to establish a strategic Hub aimed at accelerating the circular economy in the Balearic Islands. This initiative, led by Antoni Riera, focuses on positioning the foundation as a key player in the region's development, especially in transitioning the critical tourism sector towards sustainable, circular models. The plan encompasses four strategic pillars: circular economy, new management approaches, productive fabric enhancement, and internationalization.
The project gained strong institutional support, with Marga Prohens, President of the Balearic Government, attending the patrons' meeting to recognize the foundation's role as a neutral and essential regional actor. Carmen Planas, President of Impulsa, emphasized that the plan marks a shift from strategy to actionable progress, responding to evolving collaborative and informational needs in the islands.
The Hub is designed as a governance network platform that facilitates collaboration among over 60 businesses and entities, supporting companies in adopting circular business models as part of the broader Horizonte 2025-35 initiative. Riera highlighted the Hub as a logical step toward sustaining the long-term circular transition. The foundation's mandate was renewed for the next two years, consolidating its critical conservative entrepreneurial base.
This platform not only aims to stimulate innovative projects but also serves as a crucial facilitator for the region's economic and environmental sustainability efforts, particularly relevant given the Balearic Islands' heavy reliance on tourism.
