Futures Thinking: The case of ECOR

Logtens, Eric; Weigend Rodr�guez, Ricardo

Abstract

This interview is part of a research project which aims to formulate an interdisciplinary systematic approach based on Circular Economy (CE) principles and Futures Studies (FS) methods for anticipatory decision making in SMEs. The interest in interviewing Mr. Eric Logtens, CEO of Noble Environmental Technologies Corporation Europe (NETE), arises as he is a global expert in CE and one of the very early adopters to apply its principles. The interview questions were inspired by the publication Six Pillars: Futures Thinking for Transforming (Inayatullah, 2008). Mr. Logtens answers to these questions provide a thought-provoking viewpoint on NETE and the future of humankind.
