Episode: Tiemen ter Hoeven · Founder & CEO of Roetz · Manufacturer of Circular Bicycles & e-Bikes (47 mins)
Description: Tiemen ter Hoeven is founder and CEO of Roetz, a manufacturer of circular bicycles and e-bikes. In the Netherlands alone, about 1 million bicycles are discarded every year - whilst many parts can still be used perfectly well. In the Roetz Fair Factory, the parts are cleaned, repaired, and reassembled into new bicycles by people with poor job prospects. Roetz’ mission is to bring circular design and innovation to the bike industry and beyond. · roetz-bikes.com· www.oneplanetpodcast.org· www.creativeprocess.info
