Upcoming Seminar on Chemical Substance Management

Join us for an enlightening seminar titled "Chemical Substance Management and Supply Chain Information Strategies" hosted by the Sustainability Consulting Division of Mizuho Research Institute. The event will take place on July 22, 2026, from 10 AM to 12 PM. This is a pivotal opportunity for professionals interested in the evolving landscape of chemical regulation and sustainable business practices.

Seminar Overview

The seminar aims to provide insights into the latest trends in the European Circular Economy policies, particularly on how chemical substance management is changing. Ryo Niwano, a Senior Consultant from the Environmental Safety Team, will lead the discussion, emphasizing the broader management scope beyond just hazardous substances to include “substances that hinder circularity”.

These significant policy changes are becoming more tangible through Eco Design Regulations and the proposed End-of-Life Vehicles (ELV) directive. As the use of recycled materials expands, understanding chemical management’s role will become increasingly important for businesses.
