UNLEASH is a talent conference that brings together 1,000 individuals from around the world to tackle the world’s most pressing problems. Since 2017, UNLEASH has hosted Innovation Labs in Denmark, Singapore, China, Greenland, India, and Rwanda.

”UNLEASH is about igniting innovation among the young and helping the future design for the future. It's a mission that we have been proud to support from the very beginning,” says Tine Fisker Henriksen, Managing Director at BESTSELLER Foundation.

Focus on circular economy

The Innovation Lab has a range of overall thematic tracks that tackle specific Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

At the latest Lab in Kigali, Rwanda in 2023, BESTSELLER Foundation supported the Circular Economy Track, an essential mechanism to mitigate the current environmental challenges, and a natural extension of the Foundation’s commitment to foster sustainable solutions and address global challenges head-on.

“It is an honour to have a dedicated partner such as BESTSELLER Foundation in our innovation labs. The foundation has seen UNLEASH’s progress unfold since the very first Innovation Lab in their home country back in 2017, when UNLEASH took place in Aarhus, Denmark,” says Flemming Besenbacher, Chairperson of UNLEASH.
