About

Committing to sustainability is a transformation. The circular economy will disturb the value chain. We need to be prepared but far from being a constraint it shall make companies more flexible and resilient by reducing their risks and costs. A strategic vision for a sustainable future embeds data management, innovation and a new way to drive investments. As a collateral benefit it leads to engaging differently with customers and employees, raising attractiveness and changing the game. My career, spanning over 25 y in the field of circular economy, energy efficiency, waste management and water treatment gives me a global overview of the exciting opportunities that we all have in front of us and the ability to foster a culture of innovation, ambition and development.
