Holland Circular Hotspot partners with Global Sustainable Enterprise System
May 31, 2022
Holland Circular Hotspot and Global Sustainable Enterprise System (GSES System) signed a cooperation agreement on May 19th in the presence of Minister Liesje Schreinemacher during the mission ‘Sustainable Infrastructure & Circular Construction’ in Antwerp, Belgium.
The strategic partnership will further develop and intensify the circular approach using transparency metrics (Data for Good) and certification for CE (GESES System) within a wide range of sectors such as construction, financial services and manufacturing.
Main goals of the partnership
The primary objective is to grow the ‘coalition of the willing’ and to promote the Dutch approach and solutions in the field of the circular economy internationally, with a focus on measuring circularity and sustainability.
GSES will, for instance, be visible in the thematic brochure ‘Circular Buildings: constructing a sustainable future’. This brochure elaborates on the urgency for the buildings sector to become circular and the current momentum and opportunities to kickstart international collaboration on this transition. Best practices in The Netherlands are highlighted to show circular solutions of Dutch companies that could work in international contexts as well. Measuring circularity and international standards are essential in the transition towards a future where circular buildings are the norm.
