Your partner
through transitioning
to the Circular Economy

Technology alone is not enough to achieve the transition to the Circular Economy. We help you to reduce, remove or avoid GHG emissions while increasing ROI and meeting societal goals. If you are an organisation willing to make better use of assets and resources to reinforce your sustainable competitiveness and attract new clients and key partners, scroll down and see what we do.  

 

Sustainability strategy

We explore strategic options and enable the integration of sustainability factors in your business model. Based on the UN Sustainable Development Goals we create KPIs to monitor performance and track progress. We analyse your ESG context to identify risks and opportunities and develop an ESG Action Plan. If you haven't found your Sustainability Officer yet, just get in touch!

 

Circularity assessment

With the use of various tools and methods we help you get a clear understanding about how resources, products and waste are managed throughout your supply chain/network. The purpose of circularity assessment is to enable you to embed circularity in your company's culture, as well as to encourage key actors of your supply network to contribute to circular economy goals.

We support the development, uptake and marketability of sustainable products, services, processes and solutions. We help startups to prepare proposals and participate in business innovation competitions for fundraising and awards. We create synergies among business, technology and research partners.

 

Research projects
