Speaking at Prague’s Circular Cities conference last week was more than just a talk - it was a chance to bring Amsterdam’s circularity lessons back to the city where my story began. A huge thank you to the team at Pražský inovační institut for organizing such an inspiring event and for the chance to be part of this important conversation.
