My interest in environmental and sustainability awareness began when I was chosen as one of the 88 participants in the 2021 cohort for MIT bootcamp from more than 3000 global applicants. During this bootcamp I have been closely communicating and connected with fellow boot-campers from 39 countries and 14 time zones with an eco-friendly entrepreneurial mindset. During this bootcamp it was essential develop a new financially viable and profitable project heavily concerning the modern trilemma between consumer needs and decreasing the carbon footprint in the project pitching for further investment.
As the first CR for Norway. There are several challenges that we faced at kickstarting YES-Europe in Norway including finding sponsors and recruiting new members…However, with the help of my CO-CR: Rafed Hossain, we started developing a plan to recruit both university students and young professionals in Stavanger and Oslo, respectively. hope to see the fruitful results of our plan in action soon so we can start organising the first event for YES-Europe in Norway. Simultaneously we started YES-Europe LinkedIn page, and we are looking forward to giving a great impression for all young professionals in Norway regarding YES-E activities and events.
