🌍✨ As I reflect on my experience at the Climate Change Summit, hosted at the Bucharest National Opera, I am inspired by the wealth of ideas and discussions that unfolded over the two days. This event brought together thought leaders and innovators dedicated to addressing the pressing challenges of our time, from Biodiversity and Energy to Finance, Circular Economy, and Food. Day 1 was filled with thought-provoking panels and keynotes that explored a wide array of topics, including mass sustainable technologies and the ambitious vision of creating the largest natural park in Europe. It was evident that while we have only begun to scratch the surface of what is necessary for a greener future, we must take decisive steps forward. A total of 160 eligible applications were received for the CCS Awards, showcasing innovative visions for a better future. Out of these, only six ideas from individuals under 30 and six solutions from SMEs and NGOs were awarded in the six categories: Energy, Mobility, Construction/Circular Economy, Food & Agriculture, Environmental Education and Biodiversity/CEE Award. A significant highlight for me was presenting the Food & Agriculture category, supported by #Bayer where I had the privilege of awarding: - Lara Erjavec for her Smart Market App, which connects consumers with local producers to promote seasonal and local consumption. - favr., a Romanian start-up dedicated to producing sustainable snacks from recycled food by-products, represented by Alexandru Cristinoi. Day 2 started with focused discussions that hold the potential for significant long-term impact, with panels addressing legislation, sustainable finance & investment, and ESG measurement and reporting. The ESG Leaders Forum, hosted by the Chancellery of the Prime Minister, provided a distinguished setting for these essential conversations. I was honored to participate in the “Example of Good Practice in Business” panel alongside Ioana Botezatu, Raluca Mocanu and Tiberiu Danetiu, and I extend my gratitude to them for their insightful contributions and the valuable examples they shared during our discussion. It is evident that, regardless of the industry we represent, we share a unified objective: to safeguard the planet for future generations. Overall, my experience at the summit reaffirmed my belief that, together, we can make meaningful strides toward a sustainable future. I extend my heartfelt thanks to Ciprian Stanescu, Roxana Cojocaru and Social Innovation Solutions for the privilege of being part of this transformative movement.🌱💡 #ClimateChangeSummit #Sustainability #BetterTogether #ClimateAction #CCS2024 #Future

💪 🔄 Involved for several years in the circular transition, we took part, as part of the Belgian Presidency, in the annual meeting of the World Circular Economy Forum, #WCEF2024. 📍 This 8th edition was held in Brussels from 15 to 18 April. The event was an opportunity to showcase our winners of the first call for #BBBC circular investment projects. 🚴🏽 Blue-bike, 🍄 PermaFungi, 🏚 BC materials, 🚴🏽 Bilmo, 💉 THE CIRCULAR HUB were present at the Belgian stand. These firms were able to share their circular solutions for the bicycle, biomimicry and health categories with companies from all over the world. Their projects are based on eco-design principles and ensure more sustainable management of resources ➡ Belgian projects for a circular economy | FPS Public Health (belgium.be)   🎯 Our ambition at federal level is to support a network of players involved in the circular economy and encourage their competitiveness. This event, in partnership with the regions, was able to provide a showcase for all the circular expertise that exists in our country and strengthen collaboration between Belgian firms to speed up the circular transition process.
