Building Better Business

Show Notes

Kresse Wesling is an environmental entrepreneur that set up Elvis & Kresse – a company that makes gorgeous luxury accessories from reclaimed materials.

Kresse inspires us to think about the huge potential of the waste that normally goes into landfill, and how we can make something truly special out of it.

We get Kresse’s thoughts on what solutions are needed to tackle waste, one of the biggest environmental challenges we face, and hear about the remarkable regenerative agriculture project that she is undertaking.
