Speech

On 20 November 2025, Aaron Best and Mandy Hinzmann presented innovative digital solutions for sustainable consumption at the Federal Ministry for the Environment in Berlin. These solutions were developed as part of the project "DigiKon – Digital solutions for sustainable consumption in the circular economy", carried out by the Ecologic Institute together with IZT and GFA Consulting from June 2024 to November 2025.

The solutions were presented in a gallery walk using posters. Afterwards, participants had the opportunity to exchange ideas and engage in further discussions. The presentation focused on three concepts co-developed with stakeholders:

  1. a public-interest sharing platform for “Libraries of Things,”
  2. a scaling hub for digital solutions in the public sector, and
  3. a chatbot for sustainable product searches.

The occasion was the annual assembly of the Community for Sustainable Digitalization, which provided insights into the Federal Ministry’s digital policy and introduced new strategic priorities and key initiatives related to the circular economy.
