Founder, MINIMISE

Stefan de Linde is the founder of MINIMISE, a circular tech start-up rooted in documenting e-waste impact in the Global South. His work developing collection projects at the interface of formal and informal sectors revealed a broader insight: even in developed markets, e-waste treatment companies often lack access to tools for mass-balance traceability. Today, his company builds the solution. Minimise offers an intuitive ERP software dedicated to e-waste management. It incorporates bespoke mass-balance documentation and enables automated, customer-facing reporting on material flows.
