What an incredible two days of learning, collaboration and action at the Local Circularity Summit & E-Waste Festival 2026, hosted by ERA and The Rock Group at Makers Landing, Cape Town!

At E-Waste Buddies, we were proud to be part of an event that brought together industry leaders, innovators, policymakers and changemakers who share a common vision, turning waste into opportunity and building a more sustainable South Africa. 💚

From insightful discussions about the future of the circular economy to hands-on e-waste demonstrations and meaningful connections, the event reminded us why the work we do matters.

A huge thank you to ERA and The Rock Group for creating a platform that encourages collaboration, drives awareness and inspires real change.
