I realized that there was a huge potential in the States, and this is where the things were happening in circular economy.

With a dozen of states now across the US implementing EPR legislation that has been recently adopted, with great initiatives like Secretary Kerry's mentioned.

Clearly, I realized that first, this is an area that can be bipartisan because it cut us for economic concerns, but also for environmental concerns, for job concerns, security of supply chains concerns, So it's a wide range of solutions that can get the attention of many different audiences and interests.

The last two years, two circular economy forums trying to bring together the stakeholders in the EU and the US that are active in this field.
