Master circular design
A program facilitated by Justine Laurent, Brieuc Saffré & Fabrice Sorin
Co-founders of Circulab and Circulab Academy Manager
Having explored the benefits of circular economies, you aspire to develop an educational module on the subject. With your students increasingly attuned to social and environmental issues, they seek tools and methods to break away from current linear economic models.
Yet, after extensive research, you haven't found the perfect fit. The tools available in the market don't seem concrete, comprehensive, or easily actionable within organizations.
How can you create a more profitable business model that significantly reduces negative impacts?
Discover the answer in this hands-on training, blending theory and practice. Your students will explore the concept of circular economy, embrace systems thinking, and master practical and easily actionable innovation tools.
About the program
In this training, you will be guided to assist your students in mastering the concepts and methodological tools we use at Labeyrie Fine Foods for developing a plant-based offering and at the Vélodrome stadium in Marseille for waste reduction.
With 45 hours of learning, you'll gain the ability to apply systems thinking, analyze a value chain with circularity, and create circular and resilient business models.
You will be equipped to impart to your students with the capacity to address any socio-economic challenges with circular economy.
The program
Help your students create the business models of tomorrow
Through this initial module, your students will be able to incorporate the concept of systemic thinking into their projects while assimilating a methodology for system mapping.
Among other things, your students will:
- Learn how to map a system before launching their project
- Enhance their understanding of systems
- Identify the most effective mechanisms for rethinking their system
This second module will enable your students to revisit the value chain of their project by assessing their dependency on ecosystems with the aim of enhancing their resilience.
In other words, your students will be able to:
- Determine the best regenerative opportunities
- Analyze the resilience of their value chain
- Anticipate threats and systemic risks in their value chain
In this module, your students will identify their key stakeholders to generate maximum shared value.
In other words, the students will :
- Identify their stakeholders
- Facilitate cooperation among all actors in their ecosystem
- Generate shared value among their stakeholders
In this final section, your students will possess all the necessary tools for the development of their new circular, resilient, and sustainable business models.
In other words, the objective is to:
- Analyze a business model with a holistic approach
- Quickly recognize the impacts of their business model
- Optimize resources and generate new revenues

more information about this program
Before developing a training program tailored to your needs, we would like to talk to you to find out more about your expectations and those of your students.
We will then design a program for you, as we did for IFA Paris, which wanted to train some of its students in the circular economy and Circulab tools. This training would enable the students to make use of the knowledge and skills provided to integrate them into their end-of-study project.

Our tools are free and available on our website. You can download them here.
Your students will be able to obtain full user guides for the tools so that they can incorporate them into their projects.
