Duurzaam ondernemen - Circulaire economie - Innovative thinking
Europese burgers – zeker de jongste onder ons – lijken het te beseffen: de klimaat- en milieu-uitdagingen zijn immens en worden beter gisteren aangepakt dan morgen. Allen kijken we naar de overheid. Maar ook als burger moeten we ons steentje bijdragen. Talrijke projecten rond duurzame product- en dienstenverstrekkingen zien het licht.
R. Feltkamp en G. Hendrikx stellen vast dat zij vaak juridische implicaties hebben waaraan de initiatiefnemers meestal niet hebben gedacht.

Belgian Code of Economic Law - Book II & VII
03/13
A first part of the Belgian Code of Economic Law is now law (State Gazette 29/3/13). The published part contains Book II with some general principles (e.g. the principle of freedom of economic activity) and Book VIII with provisions on quality of products and services. The other parts are soon to follow.
The code aims at bringing more transparency and consistency in the current disparate set of rules.
R. Feltkamp worked together with Prof. K. Byttebier (PREC VUB / Everest) and F. Vanbossele (BuCo VUB) on delivering a first text which was then further adapted in light of current policy options.
