Speakers Entrepreneurship Day
Anja Cheriakova
Trash is Anja Cheriakova’s main business: “It is everywhere and it is a tangible concept to make sustainability personal.” That is why she founded Binbang: a trash can to make waste separation easy and fun for everyone, anywhere. With partners such as Landal Greenparks her company is growing fast. But Anja is not someone who likes to sit still: she uses the story of Binbang to make people more aware of their waste production, sets up initiatives for local sustainable living with her social enterprise Crowd Effect and organises challenges for high-school students to transform their school and neighborhood into a waste free zone. On Entrepreneurship Day Anja will tell us about her mission and how she spent her life after her studies to change the world.
