Circle by OPLN’s 2025 Impact Report and 2026 Outlook highlight a year of rapid growth in neutral, multi-stakeholder learning on EPR and circular policy, engaging more than 75 U.S. legislators and advisors and over 130 cross-sector leaders through experiential expeditions, summits and virtual policy dialogues. Looking ahead to 2026, Circle will expand its programming with a full calendar—featuring European and Canadian expeditions, the Southern States Summit, quarterly Policy Circles, and high-trust Readiness Circles for obligated producers under U.S. packaging EPR policies—to equip policymakers, brands, NGOs, and implementers with the practical insights and connections needed to navigate fast-moving circular policy developments.
