How can The E-Waste Column support your professional growth?

"The E-Waste Column has been a valuable platform for staying connected with the evolving e-waste and electronics circularity space. It brings together relevant industry insights, perspectives.

 

I particularly value the accessible and practical information it provides, as well as the opportunity to discover new developments, organisations, and voices across the sector. It has helped me broaden my understanding of the industry and stay informed about important conversations around e-waste, circularity, and responsible resource management. It is a useful resource for anyone working in or interested in the circular electronics ecosystem."

— Vaishnavi Pratap, Senior Circular Economy Consultant

"The E-Waste Column fills a gap that anyone working at the intersection of LCA and EU regulation will recognise: the law and policy around e-waste, batteries, and critical raw materials moves faster than most practitioners can track, and almost all of the reliable analysis sits behind consultancy paywalls. A weekly, 450-word, plain-language read on where the regulatory picture is actually moving is a genuinely useful thing to have in a feed, and the E-Waste Database, free and open is what makes it valuable to early-career practitioners and smaller organisations rather than only to firms with a research budget. For those of us building work around EU frameworks, that accessibility matters as much as the content itself."

— Tanmay Bhattacharya, LCA consultant at Paranthropus AB

Christine "has built The E-Waste Column with a clear mission and with a genuine commitment to supporting the development of the e-waste and electronics circularity ecosystem. Her ability to listen, connect people, identify relevant topics, and communicate complex industry developments clearly is a real strength."

— Tomaso Manca, Head of Marketing & Co-founder of Hiro Robotics

"Christine has a unique ability to connect people, ideas and realities from different parts of the world. [...] Over the years, our exchanges have always been insightful, thoughtful and grounded in a genuine desire to move the industry forward."

— Gabriel Trottier-Hardy, Executive Advisor - Strategy, Growth & Partnership

"Working with The E-Waste Column alongside Christine for 6 months offered an invaluable experience to familiarise with the work of a modern start-up tackling important issues. By working with The E-Waste Column, I understood that difference can be made with dedication."

— Marco R.

"I had a wonderful experience working with Christine Nikander during my Applied Research Project. Her guidance helped give the project clear direction, and I came away with a deeper understanding of the energy transition, e-waste, and the labour risks connected to resource extraction."

— Jennifer Özdemir

“Together with three classmates, I collaborated with Palsa and Pulk [and The E-Waste Column] to develop an interactive tool for analyzing the life cycle of EV batteries. This project strengthened my technical and teamwork skills [...].”

— Aniol Gironès López, Utrecht University

"Over the last two years I have worked with Christine and the E-Waste Column on several occasions. [...] The organisation's expertise and Christine's empowering and open character have enabled me to gain important skills. [It has] taught me how to communicate professionally, adapt to the needs of a client in a consultancy setting, whilst learning about the e-waste sector and its implications for businesses. It was a highly valuable experience that has positively steered my early career [...]!"

— Teun Bastiaans, Utrecht University

We are critical, independent, and think for ourselves. We are not funded by big tech, mining conglomerates, or the European Union. Our work is rooted in creating a positive impact for people and the planet. Unlike many other private and public actors in the sector, we are not here to advance some hidden ulterior motive. Since we started out in 2022, our honest goal has always just been to educate, connect, and support society in the transition over to a more transparent, circular, and just electronics future.

 

All our written and audio content is created without the use of AI and its resulting plagiarism. We openly and honestly reference the sources we use. If you see an uncanny overlap between our work and that of others (without a direct reference being made to our work or to a content license acquired from us), it is probably safe to assume they – or the AI models they have used – have copied from us without the permission to do so. Our work is frequently stolen and its copyright ownership is often misrepresented in an illegal and disrespectful manner. While we actively pursue remedies to the theft of our intellectual property through the court of law, we have also learned to trust that our longstanding readers and users can recognize our voice and our way of thinking – even when it is masqueraded as an original thought by someone who has played no part in its creation.
