“The program provides a platform for our new generation to align on common approaches to solving major problems. I look forward to learning tools and perspectives needed to create a more sustainable and equitable world.“

Raised in Brussels, with a background in economics and alumnus from HEC Paris, his experiences span four continents. Aron Handreke's journey is one of curiosity, with his early life enriched with unique hobbies, as he speaks five languages and shares a deep passion for music. Today, as the founder of ContainerGrid, he has embarked on a mission to accelerate the circular economy, fostering a world where nature and growth coexist harmoniously.

Handreke embodys the spirit of enthusiasm and positivity, dedicated to building a meritocratic and peaceful society where everyone lives freely with access to human rights. Engaged in socio-critical thinking, he is a generous, empathic, however pragmatic person. The event that has inspired him to become a Founder was the economic and political decision by countries like China to stop importing waste from Western countries and pollution landfills. Along with his research into bio-based feedstocks for regenerative biofuels, and a belief in the need for large emitters to be regulated, his venture into decentralized supply chains enhances by new technologies was inspired by childhood memories of curiously exploring the contents of a paper trash at home.
