Marten Klein works for the Infrastructure & engineering department of the City of Amsterdam. Jurgen Herbschleb works for Royal HaskoningDHV.
The story starts four years ago, on a rainy Sunday morning in a dune in Terschelling. Marten hears about the model 'Economy for the common good' and is immediately interested in how it could be applied on the procurement of infrastructure in Amsterdam. But he doesn't know how. He writes to contractors in his network: 'please look at this model and do you want to go on a journey with me?' In this talk, Marten and Jurgen tell their insights of the last 1,5 years.
Regarding to Marten there are two important things to know from the start: that we spend about half a billion a year on infrastructure in Amsterdam and that the city has adopted the circular economy.Story of Marten Klein and Jurgen Herbschleb - recording and slides
