Excited about the future of circular economy innovation and opportunities for founders. Congratulations to Patrick Gagné, Maya Hassa, Marius THEBAULT, Jennifer McDonald and the entire Cycle Momentum team for the launch of the Circular Innovation Fund (CIF) Accelerator. The Circular Innovation Fund Acceleration Program aims to nurture selected pre-seed and seed-stage companies within the circular economy to bolster investment in an underserved sector, de-risk future CIF investments, and support the build-out of a broader collaborative ecosystem of circular companies at all stages of commercialization. Two sectors are the focus: BEYOND PLASTIC : NEW MATERIALS FOR BARRIER APPLICATIONS REPLACING PLASTIC: - Fiber, PCR, biobased solutions for advanced packaging and other barrier applications. UPCYCLING: SUPPLY CHAIN WASTEVALORISATION - Coproduct, waste or CO2 valorisation through innovative upcycling technologies. As a national leader in climate solutions, Cycle Momentum and Demeter are ideal catalytic partners for innovators in the circular economy. This opportunity includes funding, support, capacity building, and meaning network growth. #circulareconomy #upcycling #cleantech #impactinvesting #plasticwaste #supplychain https://lnkd.in/gRnr4Znq

🥁 Introducing the BTI framework - our comprehensive Metrics for monitoring bio-based systems against environmental sustainability, circularity, and social aspects. BIORADAR metrics will measure and report upon a business's progress in becoming more circular, environmentally and socially sustainable. 👇 Here's how our BIORADAR metrics work: 🎯 Strategic/Core Indicators: These metrics provide users with a verdict on their performance. We focus on a limited amount of indicators to deliver clear insights into how well stakeholders are performing against sustainability and circularity goals. 📊 Performance Indicators: These metrics assess the physical processes underlying bio-based systems' performance. From the share of secondary materials used to recycling rates across all stages of the value chain. 🔄 Process Indicators: Monitoring the transition process towards bio-based systems within organizations is critical. Our process indicators highlight various aspects of change processes, ensuring a thorough understanding of the journey towards sustainability and circularity. By leveraging these types of metrics, BIORADAR empowers stakeholders at every step of the innovation process. We provide insights that point towards new or improved products and services beneficial from economic, social, circularity, and environmental viewpoints. 🌱 #Sustainability #CircularEconomy #Innovation
