Noor Huitema-Hellemans completed her studies in civil engineering at the Delft University of Technology. What inspires her most is accelerating the transition to a circular economy, with a focus on the building sector. She does so by forging connections between parties with an intrinsic motivation for sustainability. In 2013, after working for various consulting firms, she established Copper8, an impact-driven agency involved in the realisation of circular projects and research activities high up on the agenda of significant players in the sector. Noor advises NPM on all issues related to a Sustainable Future.
