Milgro recently joined Circle Economy. This leading cooperative, founded by Robert-Jan van Ogtrop, brings leaders and pioneers together to accelerate the transition to a circular economy.
Just like Milgro, Circle Economy sees great risks in the current way of producing, consuming and scrapping, but above all also challenges and opportunities. Opportunities to retain value that is still often lost and to add new value in a sustainable way. The Circle Economy mission is to create a prosperous world in which everyone knows abundance, within the limits of our planet. To contribute to this and to accelerate the transition, Circle Economy offers knowledge, resources and services that bring circular business operations within reach, such as scans, strategic advice and evaluation models.
“Circle Economy 's mission, ambition and culture are fully in line with ours. We can strengthen each other enormously from a joint drive and complementary activities. In short, a natural partnership, ”said Ruud Hageman, CEO of Milgro. “We recognize Circle Economy's statement that more and more people know why it should be done - but that how it should be done is still largely unknown. With our specialist knowledge, tools and a 25-year track record, we mainly want to work together in practice and realize internationally appealing, successful cases. So it's mainly about doing, based on our motto 'earth & earn together'. The point is that companies continue to earn more by operating more sustainably. ”
Circle Economy is also happy to welcome Milgro as a new member. CEO Harald Friedl: “We are thrilled that Milgro is joining the Circle Community. As an innovative Dutch cleantech company with international ambitions and a track record in the field of technical solutions for a circular economy, they are a driven and experienced partner with an interesting network and a valued part of the Community.
