CT Day 2 Session 4

“Companies practising business-as-usual will go extinct in the next 7 years”- consumers are demanding sustainability to be the key driver of the companies they engage with as they realise the impact of their choice.

This is a difficult or new topic for most businesses, who understand that change is inevitable but don’t know where to start.

It’s the responsibility of the private sector to take control of the future direction of business & the planet. I am a passionate change specialist and help companies implement sustainable disruption. With my mission to continue to pioneer innovation in the waste industry and reduce waste-to-landfill through waste revalue, minimisation & management, my company UNWASTED helps the private sector save the planet and bring their business ahead of the curb.

Toast Ale South Africa is the first company we started which converts waste to value- we use fresh surplus bread which would otherwise go to landfill and emit methane gas (more potent than CO2), to instead brew a low-calorie and delicious alternative – craft beer!

We analyse and use your very own processes, waste management, supply chain, and product/ service delivery to give you an edge.

Let me show you how we can bring your company into the future…

Have a strong entrepreneurial interest through innovation in science, agriculture, and engineering, a multidisciplinary individual, a team player.
Objectives: To create an opportunity for at least an individual making a difference in society (to learn, practise, impart, and transform).
