The challenge

During this two-day event, you will dive into current challenges at EasyToys together with other creative doers. In this hackathon and in multidisciplinary teams, we will tackle one central question: how do we turn return flows into new value? This involves the following products: lingerie, damaged packaging, and toys. Through brainstorms, creative sprints, and other working methods, you will develop solutions for real business cases. Think outside the box, and above all: dare to think differently. Together, we take steps towards the future of circular entrepreneurship.

What others say about the Green Business Challenge

I never thought that, as a student, I would immediately work with companies in the energy transition. Thanks to the challenge, I found my first job in the sector and built a network that I still benefit from.

I hadn't expected beforehand that the Green Business Challenge would provide such a networking boost. I worked directly with experts in the field and even landed a job! You build a network here in a short time that is truly useful. If you are looking for an entry into the green sector, this is it!

Feline Blokzijl

Students were like a mirror to me. They came up with refreshing ideas and brought the latest knowledge that I didn't know beforehand I needed to know.

The Green Business Challenge opened many more doors than I had expected. In addition to working in a team full of motivated students, I also learned new things that I will take with me into the professional field.
