Johannes Schwegler at TEDx Kassel
“Ideas worth spreading” – under this slogan numerous TEDx events take place all over the world every year. Artists, scientists and founders get the opportunity to share their story, their ideas or their knowledge with a large audience. On October 25th our managing director Johannes Schwegler was also invited to join the list of his renowned predecessors.
That Johannes’ TED Talk would actually be broadcasted during the live event, was uncertain for a while. Due to the Corona Pandemic, Johannes had to cancel his trip to Kassel – where the talk was planned to be filmed on a large stage for the event – at short notice. Instead, the talk could thankfully be spontaneously filmed in Stuttgart by our communications team.
In his presentation Johannes gives insights on how his experiences as a young teacher of a carpenter school on Borneo some years ago, was eventually the foundation of Fairventures. He talks about the path to one million distributed seedlings and with which ideas our team at Fairventures wants to succeed in supporting farmers to plant 100 million trees. Enjoy the video!
