ALUMNI
ALUMNI WILLICROFT - What happens when you combine a cheese lover with a passion for the planet? Yes, you guessed it. Willicroft.

ALUMNI PAPER ON THE ROCKS - Paper on the Rocks has developed notebooks made from the revolutionary Cradle-to-Cradle ‘stone paper’, made of stone! No trees, water or toxic substances and bleaches are used to produce their beautiful Rockbooks. Environmentally friendly stationery made for anyone that wants to change the world by the stroke of a pen.
ALUMNI KLABU - Sports as a driver for growth and connection - that is the KLABU spirit. It doesn't matter whether you're kicking a ball, we all feel the power and joy of sports. But we don't all have the same opportunities. KLABU is the club that unlocks access to sports. Starting where it’s needed most: in refugee camps.
ALUMNI PLASTIC WHALE is the first professional plastic fishing company in the world. A social enterprise with a mission: make the world’s waters plastic-free and create value from plastic waste. They have a fleet of eleven boats made from Amsterdam Canal Plastic. It is their goal to go ‘out of business’: overfishing is a positive phenomenon in their case.
