Maryse Meinen

Maryse Meinen

Maryse is currently working as a product person, together with an awesome team. She is weaving sustainability in all that she does, also in her work in product development, because if we don’t… nothing else will matter. She is always looking for ways to develop products more sustainably (in the whole value chain) the radical economic theory of Degrowth and the idea of doing more with less caught her attention. She is now applying these principles practically in her way of working. Maryse is also an active practitioner of Stoic philosophy, which aligns neatly with sustainability principles, because it advocates “wanting what you already have” (instead of striving to have all that you want).
