About Me
Marc van den Berg studies and teaches new methods to enable circular buildings and infrastructures. His award-winning PhD thesis, entitled 'Managing Circular Building Projects', is one of the first worldwide to focus on understanding the application of the circular economy concept to the construction industry. He currently works on integrating circularity thinking into the Systems Engineering methodology.
