Hi everyone!
I'll start by going over what I've done for the society this year. It's been my pleasure working on the Green360 Newsletter, writing articles every month about the latest developments in green business. I've also been helping out with the Green Business Forum, sourcing a speaker from the startup world, and sorting some of the scheduling.
Why do I want to run? Because I want to see this society expand and become a really significant presence in the green community of London. London is the startup hub of the UK and is home to countless exciting research projects; Green Economy Society should be a focal point connecting students with careers and supporting new projects.
Here is a summary of what I want to achieve as Vice President.
1. Organize large socials bringing in people from the many different green-focused societies at UCL.
2. Produce a careers guide on finding a job in sustainable sectors and arranging a mentoring scheme.
3. Find sponsorships with established environmentally friendly companies.
4. Forge links with other universities to host larger events.
5. Add an organized startup pitching competition to the Green Business Forum.
Thank you for reading (and hopefully for voting!); together, we can lead Green Economy Society into the future!
