About Marie

With my background as a chemist, 20 years' experience in industry and various value chains and my expertise in the circular economy, I founded Circé co-creation, a circular economy consultancy and co-creation agency.

Thanks to my expertise, companies are making better use of resources. They make their procurement activities more resilient, they reduce their waste and their carbon footprint. They can reach new customers attracted by this more sustainable offering.

I support customers on their circularity journey through personalized services.
- Awareness
- Assessment
- Planning and implementation
- Monitoring results and defining what’s next

I support companies in their circular transition.
I am a change agent for more sustainable lives.
I co-create with companies circular products and business models.

In my last role as sustainability leader in a large international chemical company, I supported companies and value chains to achieve more circularity from plastics and polyurethane foam.
I lead a global chemical recycling program and shaped its next generation to bring it to a scale multiplied by 50 times its initial capacity.

I have a genuine passion for nature and I strive to adopt for myself a sustainable lifestyle.
