The circular economy is personally close to my heart and for the past 16 years I have built various brands, concepts, production, etc. around the circular economy.

The last 5 years have passed with refurbished devices and buyback side. First I built the Telia Finland refurbished concept “Recycled” and buyback product. For the last two years, I managed the entire Telia group devices circular economy, expanding that all 6 Telia countries sell and buy devices on the b2c and b2b side.

At the beginning of the year I jumped to the other side of the fence to help more broadly, gathering all the lessons I have learned along the way. I lead RCK Finland’s circular economy business and we are one of the largest and fastest growing circular economy operators in the Nordics. I am very happy about the new role because help is needed very widely in both the b2c and b2b sectors.
