And that is 'Renée Materials', co-created by our sixth guest of the season, Frieda Bischoff.\nRenee is a digital platform that enables companies to sell their leftover, surplus stock and offcut waste to be reused. So instead of being sent to landfill, surplus materials can be purchased at a great price, and re-enter the market.\nWe were delighted Frieda joined us for this episode, and sat down with James to discuss:\n🌲 Her childhood growing up in the Black Forest of Germany\n⚠️ 'The Rebound Effect', and why giving things away for free can be a BAD thing\n💰 Why Sustainable options must also be competitively priced\n🥊 Fighting as a competitor to Amazon\n🔄 The role which Circular Economy will play in our future\n... and much more! ✨\nFrieda's episode was so uplifting, and we really felt her passion and positive outlook permeate through this chat. We hope you enjoy the episode 💚\nAbout Frieda Bischoff:\nFrieda Bischoff is the Co-Founder of Renée Materials. Renée is a digital platform that enables companies to sell their leftover, surplus stock and offcut waste to be reused. Think of it as the \"Too-Good-To-Go\" but for creative materials.\nFurther Resources from the episode: \nRenée website: https://reneematerials.co.uk/\nFrieda on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/frieda-bischoff-23239b16b/\nMusic credit: bensound.com\nhttps://ecosend.io","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/aF_nZZ8GimreUZX44-PMUBaSuN-8iTLBAU1Wy4JKDpM/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzM0OTAwLzE2NjQ4/MDUyNjctYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
