Team Brightminds and Team Events are joining forces and present to you an interactive workshop: What is sustainable coffee? Let’s debate!
During the workshop we will dive deeper into the coffee industry and the challenges they are facing concerning sustainability. We will welcome Nespresso and Ngopi. You, as a student, will be able to confront/ask them on their used processes and resources. How do they package their coffee? Are they paying their farmers truthfully? What about ‘reviving origins’ and ‘CO2 neutrality’? We want to challenge you to gain better insights and to reach an equilibrium between all the players of the coffee supply chain.
Join us during the interactive workshops and let’s discuss what sustainable coffee is!
The same workshop is organised three times on the same day. Register and choose your timeslot through this link:

At this moment, a lot of big companies have started to think more sustainably and are trying to change their way of operating. You might wonder how they are doing this. Multinationals like AB InBev are coming to educate us on how they adapted their businesses to become more sustainable. On top of that, we welcome Pauli, who will tell us all about how the industry is changing and which sustainable trends are emerging.
