Little notes

1) We mentioned the name ‘Alchemy™’: it is the Plastic Bank’s blockchain platform securing the entire transaction and providing real-time data visualization – allowing for transparency, traceability, and rapid scalability.

2) While David explained the input of feminine energy, he spoke about the Circular Economy. If you want to have a 4 min 20 sec audio explanation about the Circular Economy, listen from 00:03:53 to 00:08:13 of the 30 minutes Idea Shots- Season 2, Episode 4 with Adina Vlad, Alec Bălășescu and Colienne Regout
