About CIRCULAR INFLUENCE

ONE COMMUNITY TO MEET, ACT & TRANSFORM SUSTAINABLE IDEAS INTO POSITIVE IMPACT SOLUTIONS

Founded in 2020, Circular Influence® is a nonprofit organization funded by individual and institutional donations. Circular Influence seeks to help the world accelerate the transition to a circular economy with NET-ZERO emissions based on systemic thinking. Our actions are designed to achieve global sustainable positive impact as quickly, safely, and equitably as possible.

Our global knowledge and innovation community platform bring together partners from the private sector, the academic field, public administrations, program owners, researchers, non-profit sectors and the civil society to create a network of experts capable of developing innovative products, services and systems, ready to be brought to the market and in this way scale their impact on society.

Our Vision

Our economy, society and environment are interdependent systems: the vitality of one affects the vitality of all of them.

Stopping global warming is possible, with solutions that exist today. In order to transition to a CIRCULAR ECONOMY while using current solutions, we must begin to think differently.

We need to work together to achieve NET-ZERO emissions.

Circular sustainable projects are fragmented. It has become increasingly clear that rather than hindering international synergies, it is the establishment of joint programming that is imperative to optimize impact.

We are an inclusive and innovative community where stakeholders can meet and ideas can grow.

Our History

Circular Influence was initially founded in January 2019 in Geneva by Juliette Cocca to uncover the most substantive solutions to stop climate change, and to communicate them to the world. Soon after establishing our legal statutes, we started securing our very first partnerships and alliances. We became the full members of the EIT Climate-KIC, a Knowledge and Innovation Community and established our first appearances with programmes such as Climathon, ClimateLaunchpad, Young Innovators and DigiEduHack.
More information about our journey from the foundation to where we are now can be found in our Insights section.
