Improve your business resilience

Adapt to the challenges of the 21st century

Master Circular Design

A program created by Justine Laurent, Brieuc Saffré & Fabrice Sorin
Co-founder of Circulab, Managing Director and Circulab Academy Manager

Your organization has clearly identified the need for a 180-degree shift towards circular and regenerative practices, and the motivation is clear.

However, you note serious challenges in generating truly circular and regenerative proposals, and most of the time, projects do not progress beyond the stage of a beautiful PowerPoint presentation.

You perceive that one of the main reasons for this lack of results is the fact that your organization still thinks with the reflexes of the past while seeking to build the business of tomorrow's world.

You are aware that profound changes are necessary if your organization wants to be resilient and continue to thrive in a constantly changing world.

Initiate your 180-degree reset by adapting your organization to today's challenges through our comprehensive training program, 'Master Circular Design'.

About the program

Master the concepts and methodological tools we use, with clients such as Orange to promote smartphone repair or Lancôme for merchandising reuse. Achieve this through interactive workshops by mastering circular design!

Based on a real challenge within your organization, we will navigate from the analysis of the current value chain to the creation of circular business models.

To sump up, your collaborators will learn to view the world from a new perspective, enabling them to approach any socio-economic issues in a circular and resilient manner, providing clear and actionable solutions.
