As Region, Organisation and City
Our Industrial system is undergoing rapid transformation due to Breakthrough Technology development, Climate Change and Scarcity of global Raw Resources. These trends are increasing affecting risk profiling of Business and regional Economies.
The Transition towards a Circular industrial system offers opportunities for resource efficiency, effective manufacturing, lower unit costs and product diversification. The challenge is creating resilient Business Models based on (Eco)Innovative solutions with Zero Negative environmental impact.
The good news, our Spaceship Earth has solved many of the sustainable challenges already. Emulating nature is proving to be the direction where new innovations and business models are emerging from. The biggest challenge is how to be resourceful and innovative in creating profitable innovative business models which are good for society, business and our Spaceship.
Zero Waste, Total Productivity of Matter, is the next Paradigm Shift where No Pollution exists and only Cash flows.
We think about Zero Waste as an business opportunity, from Money to Matter and Energy and back again, Because all Matter Counts. This is our different perspective which is a tailor made approach.
The Zero Waste Consultant bridges (Eco)Logical Thinking with (Eco)Nomical Doing. We apply knowledge from Natures Patterns to develop Innovation Strategies which offer lower manufacturing process costs and lower unit costs.
System Dynamics lies at the heart of what we do. The Circular Economy requires a revaluation of Value Chains and Breakthrough technologies. We focus converting your negative (environmental) costs into positive cash flow’s.
A visionary pragmatic route map is what we envision to achieve. Visionary because you understand the market & technology trends. Pragmatic because you have clear design guidelines how to manoeuvre your organisation into the Future. Tailormade because Every Business Counts.

Yesterday I attended to an interesting webinar of Alexander Prinsen about Introduction to Zero Waste Solutions. Thank you Alexander to share your ideas and your vision. Two things now are to me more obvious: 1. the nature is simple: it manages to hold life in all his shapes based on few and simple mechanisms, 2. the nature is generous: we have below the eyes the answer to all our questions and needs. – Anonymous –
Alexander and I sat down for a coffee to discuss his approach to business development and its application to my business plan. To say it was inspiring is an understatement. His zero waste approach, which goes far beyond waste management in the traditional sense, generated new insights and ideas. Key takeaway: focus on scope not scale! Highly valuable.

De uitnodiging luidde: “Op zoek naar ondernemerskansen in de markt voor duurzame marktoplossingen? Welke achtergrondkennis is nodig om die kansen te zien en te pakken? Blue Procurement gidst je erdoorheen”. Dat was niets teveel gezegd: als Master of Beautiful Achievements loodst Alexander je in 1 dagdeel op zeer vakkundige en boeiende wijze door alle basisbeginselen van de Blauwe Economie. Gesteund door zeer veel feitenkennis en ervaring, gecombineerd met een heerlijke no-nonsense DOE-mentaliteit weet Alexander op enerverende wijze een compleet beeld te presenteren.

Door inzichten, ervaringen en kennis uit te wisselen, te delen komen we tot de conclusie dat verandering de enige optie is. Verandering die je in alle mensen, organisaties, sectoren en omgeving als geheel moet doorvoeren. Een gezamenlijk menselijk proces van positieve gedragsverandering. Gedragsverandering door confrontatie, bewustwording, door verbinding en samenwerking , maar zeker door kansen en mogelijkheden te zien en optimaal en pro actief te gaan benutten.
Alexander, bedankt voor het delen voor de inzichten die we samen met elkaar hebben gekregen. Ik heb veel van je mogen leren. We hopen niet, we weten, we doen… is ons gezamenlijke motto geworden.

Alexander heeft met zijn MBA een opleiding ontwikkelt die je raakt. Aan de hand van theoretische kennis en concrete praktijkvoorbeelden geeft hij inzicht over de bouwstenen van de blauwe economie. De bevlogenheid waarmee Alexander zijn avonturen en bevindingen over weet te brengen zijn een bron van inspiratie die hopelijk mede zorgt voor een wijd omarmde gedragsverandering. De theorie en diverse casus laten zien dat we onderdeel zijn van en verbonden zijn met de natuur. De transitieperiode waar wij in zitten laat zien dat we de verbinding met de natuur moeten opzoeken en dat wij in staat zijn om nieuw evenwicht en balans te creëren. Je kunt op veel manieren naar dingen kijken en er is meer dan we kunnen zien. Alexander geeft dit feilloos weer aan de hand van zijn kennis en de voorbeelden in de wereld.
Blue Procurement is de eerste opleiding waar ik tijdens een college niet in slaap ben gevallen, maar juist meer wakker door ben geworden!
