Our guest today, Fay de Waal, is a dynamic and passionate sustainability innovator, materials scientist, and diversity advocate. With experience with multiple master thesis, a specialist in the recyclability of offshore wind turbines, an analyst at 414, and founder of the Libra Network, Fay exemplifies holistic thinking in both technical and social realms. Her work bridges sustainable engineering, stakeholder management, and gender equality, while her commitment to entrepreneurial problem-solving is matched by her drive for continuous learning and impact.💡 What You’ll Learn from Fay's Journey: 🔸 Systems Thinking in Sustainability: Fay demonstrates why solving large challenges like wind turbine recyclability requires a holistic view, accounting for material lifecycles, data limitations, and interdisciplinary collaboration, not just technical fixes. 🔸 The Critical Role of Data: Her experience shows how better data management and transparency, across supply chains and product life cycles, are fundamental for enabling true circularity and informed decision-making in both business and policy. 🔸 Redefining Success: Fay’s journey is a reminder that success isn’t measured solely in output or hours worked, but in finding balance, enjoying the process, and pursuing projects aligned with your values and passions. 🔸 Diversity as a Sustainability Driver: Through founding Libra Network and her advocacy in STEM, Fay underscores that diverse voices and equitable workplaces are not just social goods, but essential ingredients to devising robust, resilient solutions for the future.You can connect with Fay on ⁠LinkedIn⁠ to follow her journey.🎥 Big thanks to VidOps for supporting Founders Voyage.
