Last month, Anja Krabbe, Customer Care and Business Development Manager for Ingram Micro Lifecycle Germany, had the opportunity to present during a meeting of the ZVEI-Association in Berlin.
The event focused on encouraging discussion between the association members on the current situation around technology use, and Anja was responsible for delivering a keynote speech.
Her presentation, 'Take-Back and Grading of Electronic Products', covered the challenge posed by the great growth of e-waste and posited the circular economy as the solution, with take-back programs, grading and recommerce.
When asked what she enjoyed most about the event, Anja said, "The open nature of the members and the great interest in circular models. My biggest takeaway was the direct communication and connections I made with the participants. Only together can we turn the wheel of the circular economy and evolve preloved technology to reloved."
Vielen Dank für die Einladung, geehrter ZVEI-Verband und die Möglichkeit, die Lifecycle Services der Ingram Micro vorzustellen. Es war Fabian Ipsch und mir eine Freude, die Mitglieder kennenzulernen und an den spannenden Diskussionen teilzunehmen. Unsere Gespräche über die Möglichkeiten der Kreislaufwirtschaft und der Verringerung der CO2-Fußabdrücke haben wir sehr genossen und freuen uns auf den weitergehenden Dialog.
