Circular Tech Expo Launches in 2026 as the UK’s Leading Event for Enterprise Technology Lifecycle & Circular Innovation

Farnborough, UK – 13–14 October 2026 – Circular Tech Expo will take place on 13–14 October 2026 at Farnborough International Exhibition & Conference Centre, establishing a dedicated UK platform for enterprise technology lifecycle management, secure reuse and circular innovation.

Developed in response to growing regulatory, ESG and data security pressures across enterprise IT environments, Circular Tech Expo addresses the commercial and operational challenges associated with managing technology assets throughout their full lifecycle — from deployment and optimisation through to secure reuse, recovery and responsible end-of-life processing.

The event brings together a highly targeted audience of solution providers and enterprise end users, creating a buyer-focused environment centred on lifecycle optimisation, compliance, governance, value recovery and sustainable digital infrastructure. Approximately 1,000 senior decision-makers are expected across the two days, with attendance balanced between industry specialists and enterprise leaders.

Industry attendees include ITAD providers, OEM take-back programme leaders, lifecycle software platforms, data centre operators, reverse logistics firms and refurbishment specialists. End-user participation is driven by enterprise IT directors, CIOs, infrastructure managers, procurement leaders and sustainability executives across financial services, healthcare, education, regulated corporates and public sector organisations.

A Market-Driven Platform for Circular Enterprise Technology

Commenting on the launch, Eddy Lawrance, Managing Director, said:

“As enterprise technology estates expand and regulatory expectations tighten, organisations need a specialist forum focused specifically on lifecycle performance, compliance and commercial circularity. Circular Tech Expo has been designed to meet that need.”

“This is not a general sustainability event. It is a focused platform bringing together the organisations responsible for managing, securing and optimising technology assets at scale. Our goal is to create an environment where serious commercial conversations take place and where circular strategy translates into measurable performance.”

Programme Highlights & Industry Focus

Circular Tech Expo is structured around four core features:

• Circular IT & Lifecycle Theatre – Expert-led talks, keynote sessions and panel discussions exploring lifecycle strategy, compliance, ESG integration, data security and market trends.
• The Circular 100 UK – Recognising individuals driving measurable leadership and innovation across enterprise technology lifecycle management.
• Live Technology & Demonstration Zones – In-action showcases of data destruction, processing equipment, lifecycle automation tools and value recovery solutions.
• Targeted Networking & Specialist Lounges – Dedicated spaces enabling meaningful commercial conversations between enterprise buyers and solution providers.

Together, these features create a focused destination for organisations seeking to strengthen resilience, reduce risk and unlock greater value from their technology estates.
