The founders
The challenge
In a context of increasing resource scarcity and regulatory requirements, businesses are still struggling to adopt concrete circular economy solutions. The identification of deposits, the traceability of resource flows and the structuring of a large-scale reuse strategy remain complex to implement, especially for large groups.
The activity
CircularPlace deploys a SaaS platform that allows organizations to map their internal resources, reuse them or make them available to external actors, in a structured circular economy logic. The solution already connects more than 2,000 companies, including references such as Schneider Electric, Société Générale, Accor and Galeries Lafayette. Thanks to a simple interface and tailor-made support, CircularPlace facilitates the adoption of circular practices directly integrated into the purchasing or logistics processes.
The impact
The platform has made it possible to divert more than 10,000 tons of materials from traditional waste channels by promoting their reuse. It contributes to a direct reduction in the environmental footprint of client companies, while helping them structure their CSR strategy around recognized principles such as the Circular Economy Principles and the “Zero Waste” guidelines. Beyond optimizing resources, CircularPlace installs a sustainable culture in organizations and values flows that have hitherto been considered secondary.
What we liked
CircularPlace ticks all the criteria for a climate solution with high potential: a clear vision, operational use cases and a proven capacity for execution. The team was able to convince major accounts, prove its model, and lay the foundations for a circular infrastructure at the service of businesses.
