“What Echooo is introducing to the market struck us as so incredibly timely. The concept, product and services offer an attractive solution to organisations in Europe and beyond. With the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals shining a spotlight on responsible consumption and production, waste management is an area that will become increasingly important for organisations to understand and make positive changes – and fast,” said Helena Jansson, senior vice president finance, FedEx Express International.

　　Echooo offers customers an innovative solution that supports surement and reporting but also introduces value-add services, such as audits and educational workshops to help shift team member behaviour.

　　“The integration of sustainable practises in company culture is something we recognise as absolutely key to achieving our collective ambitions in this area. We are excited to support Echooo and explore ways to introduce their solution to our own offices in Belgium,” Jansson added.

　　FedEx Express designed its signature award to bring the notion of “access” into the core thinking of future entrepreneurs. It recognizes the student-run company that best demonstrates innovation, a readiness to access global markets, drive socio-economic growth, and takes a responsible approach to environmental sustainability.
