November 27, 2024. It’s a date we will always remember. It’s the day our beloved Fairphone 2 came back to life… in the form of the world’s first circular microcomputer. We couldn’t be prouder of this wonderful project our partners at Citronics have been working on. And the timing of the launch couldn’t be better. With Black Friday right around the corner, it’s always good to see how we can use the growing mountain of electronic waste for something good. We sat down with Jean-Brieuc Feron, the founder of the Belgium-based low-tech consultancy, to learn more about this wonderful innovation that is literally resurrecting our old phones.
