“We feel very grateful that we had Jessica Sansom at our European Startup Festival 2020. We went crazy when she confirmed her participation and we were right to do so as she was absolutely fantastic! The event was held online in November 2020 and she was giving the sustainability keynote speech ‘sustainable from the start’. We and the participants were amazed how many practical steps were included in the 15 minutes she had. The honesty and transparency of the talk were refreshing and eye-opening. The audience’s reactions were as positive as ours. Thank you Jessica. We are looking forward to having you again at our future events”
