It was a privilege to be involved with “The ExperienCE” event, marking the launch of the Beaulieu Circulaire - the first innovation space dedicated to Circularity and Inclusion in Switzerland and home to our partners, Impact Hub Lausanne, and others. The event also celebrated the 3-year anniversary of the pioneer initiative CE Transition – Circular Economy Transition. 🌿
Kickstart has been part of this initiative for the last 3 years, with a focus on creating partnerships connected to a circular economy and sustainability with partners like MAVA Foundation, Holcim, Coop, Swisscom, Energy360, Stadt Zürich, scaleups such as Planted, neustark, #tide ocean material®#tide ocean material®, Kern Tec and others. 🌎
As part of the event, our CEO & Co-Founder Katka Letzing co-hosted a session on “Scaling Circular Innovation to Global Markets & Value Chains” with Ljupka Mitrinovska from Accelerate2030. In addition, Katka participated as speaker in the evening panel “A Dialogue with Practitioners” alongside Christian Nils Schwab, Executive Director of EPFL (École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne) Food Centre and Francesco Vass, CEO of Ricardo AG. We were also lucky to share some delicious vegan cheese samples with the attendees during the aperó, kindly sponsored by #Kickstarter22 New Roots AG! 🧀
Beaulieu Circulaire is dedicated to fostering all forms of innovation through collaboration between businesses, governments, universities, and civil society to support the transition towards sustainable lifestyles. We look forward to continuing working in this inspiring space, and no better place to host our upcoming CEO Dinner in Lausanne on 25 October! ✨
