    About me

    Philippe Eiselein is een pracademic expert in sociale innovatie, circulaire economie en duurzame partnerschappen gefocust op systeemverandering. Hij werkt op het snijvlak van onderzoek, onderwijs en praktijk, met een focus op hoe organisaties en ecosystemen transities effectief kunnen vormgeven.

    Als Senior Researcher bij het Center for Sustainable Entrepreneurship (CenSE) coördineert hij onderzoekstrajecten rond systeeminnovatie, circulaire businessmodellen en cross-sectorale samenwerking. Hij leidt en ondersteunt Europese en Vlaamse projecten die sociale impact en duurzame transformatie centraal stellen.

    Daarnaast is hij gastprofessor aan de Vrije Universiteit Brussel, waar hij studenten en professionals begeleidt in het ontwerpen van ondernemende oplossingen voor maatschappelijke uitdagingen. Philippe’s werk concentreert zich op innovatieve bedrijfsmodellen, partnerdynamieken, competentieontwikkeling, en de manier waarop ecosystemen samenwerken om duurzame verandering mogelijk te maken.

    Als pracademic vertaalt hij academische inzichten naar praktische tools (van transitie-workshops tot circulaire simulatiespellen) die organisaties helpen om hun impact te vergroten.

    Hij speelde een sleutelrol in diverse internationale projecten en gaf keynotes en presentaties op tientallen conferenties.

    Eerder coördineerde hij Belgium Impact, een nationaal platform voor sociaal ondernemerschap, erkend door Zijne Majesteit de Koning, en gezien als Europese best practice.

    Met meer dan tien jaar onderwijservaring in projectmanagement, circulariteit, CSR en sociaal ondernemerschap, streeft hij naar een economie waarin bedrijven maatschappelijke waarde creëren, ecologisch en sociaal veerkrachtig zijn, en bijdragen aan een inclusieve toekomst.
