Sitra organised the World Circular Economy Forum in Helsinki on 3-5 June 2019. The WCEF2019 brought together around 2,000 circular economy influencers from around the world. At the heart of the world's third Circular Economy Forum were the global scaling of circular economy solutions and the next era of the circular economy.

The Circular Economy Centre was responsible for organising the Side Event that focused on the industrial circular economy at the Central Library Oodi on Wednesday 5 June.
