What motivated me to establish a branch of 180 Degrees in Lund

Frank, President and Co-Founder of 180 Degrees Lund

Hej hej, and Welcome to the 180 Degrees Consulting Lund Blog. Here you can find interesting information regarding our Organization, tips, and news regarding sustainability! 
 
Let me introduce myself!
 
I am Frank from Frankfurt and I am the Co-founder and President of 180 Degrees Consulting Lund. I am currently doing my Master's in Innovation and Global Sustainable Development at Lund University and I am proud to contribute to the 180DC family with our newly founded organization. 
 
I was already part of 180DC Frankfurt for several years, where I started as a consultant, moved on as a Team Leader and finally became Consulting Director. This experience taught me new hard and soft skills, enhanced my teamwork ability and gave me the opportunity to apply my academic knowledge to real-life cases. Moreover, I am grateful for all the amazing people that I got to know during my journey and the good friendships that resulted from it.
 
It feels amazing to help non-profit organizations, NGOs and social businesses to unleash their whole potential so that they can create the maximum positive social impact possible, which is the rationale behind 180DC. To share my experiences and to enable other students from all different faculties to embrace this opportunity, I came up with the idea of bringing this concept to Lund. Especially a city like Lund, which is a hub for sustainable innovations and social entrepreneurs, offers a high potential for 180DC to make a lasting impact, improving social enterprises sustainably, and thus creating positive social impact for the environment and society. 
 
Although the whole COVID-19 crisis is especially hard for a newly founded organization as ours, we took all precautions possible and necessary to steer our association through this hardship and we are confident that now and after the crisis our clients will need our help more than ever! With this prospect we look forward to an exciting time, we are eager to create long-term social impact and we are excited about the projects that lie ahead of us. 
 
Stay tuned, stay healthy and take care of your fellow human beings! 
Together we are strong!
 
Frank
President of 180 Degrees Consulting Lund
