Nau mai haere mai Electra Business Breakfast is pleased to welcome Kate Fenwick, or more affectionately known as, Waste-Ed with Kate! Kate will be serving up motivation, education and inspiration — all over a delicious breakfast and a few laughs.
Join us for a high-energy business breakfast with the ever-popular Kate who is also known to many as the BIN-fluencer, a professional motivational speaker, and social media sensation. Renowned for her down-to-earth, straight-up and relatable approach to waste minimisation, Kate has captured national attention through her viral TikToks and Instagram reels that bust recycling myths, tackle food waste, and deliver real-life solutions with humour and heart.
This breakfast is aimed at helping local businesses reduce their waste, lower their environmental impact, and save money in the process. Expect fresh thinking, clever hacks, and an honest take on the barriers that businesses face when implementing sustainable change.
Kate doesn’t preach perfection — she inspires action. “You don’t have to be an environmental superhero – you just have to do something small that will make a difference,” says Kate.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
1. Why waste is a problem & where it goes (landfill explained in plain English).
2. Busting recycling myths (explaining the rules and why they’re there).
3. Practical tips around positive changes to waste outcomes, regardless of your industry.
4. Address the challenges & barriers that businesses face when striving to implement sustainable behaviour (staff buy in is key).
5. How to develop your strategy to deal with avoidable waste because of your business activities.
See you there! Book early to avoid disappointment!
