De Nederlandse overheid heeft zich gecommitteerd aan het versterken van de vele duurzame en circulaire initiatieven in de textielsector. Met een klein en ervaren regieteam ga ik de DCTV (Dutch Circular Textile Valley), het landelijke samenwerkingsverband van koplopers op het gebied van circulair textiel, verder ondersteunen en de meest kansrijke circulaire textielontwikkelingen stimuleren, begeleiden en sturen.

The Amsterdam Economic Board is the prime network of organisations building the Metropolis of Tomorrow. Our partners are leading the way to a new economy. They include businesses, universities, schools and research institutions, municipalities, provinces, and civil society organisations of all sizes. The circular transition is one of the focus areas. This transition from an extractive system towards a regenerative system requires small and large scale interventions, involves small and large organisations and is owned by a multitude of stakeholders.

COMPLEXITY OUT, CLARITY IN: WE SIMPLIFY CIRCULARITYCircular IQ is the innovative on-line platform that helps companies to build circular economy thinking into their core activities, across the entire business. We do this as we strongly believe that well designed circular systems are safe for humans and the environment and provide business opportunities. Our platform collects and stores global multi-tier supply chain data and has analysis and benchmarking integrated. It will be the tool for informed decision making on circularity. The source of every component in a product, how it was produced, the energy consumed in its production, and the economical potential of its nutrients will become transparent.
