Andreas Idl presented our work on the 3rd Genisis social business event in Munich (Germany). Interested people from Munich and around participated and showed a growing interest in social business. Alternative ways of making business become more important and the topic is spreading quickly.
The program was an interesting mix of different aspects of the social entrepreneurs and supporters. We are very happy to be a part of this movement. Thanks to the Genisis Institute and especially Michel Aloui for hosting and supporting us!

Cropster participated in the 1st Annual Extraordinary Coffee Workshop in Popayan, Colombia. This was an Intelligentsia hosted four-days event, held from 7th to 11th June 2009 in Cali and Popayan. With twenty speciality coffee growers from all over South & Central America, which made it to an incredible source of knowledge and expertise about the direct trade market. It included workshops, presentations (one held by Cropster), cupping sessions and many, many interesting conversations during the days (and nights).
My congratulations go out to the lovely people at Intelligentsia and the coffee growers I met. You truly made this a unique experience and I hope to see more of such events coming up in the future.
