Nordic Fairtrade Challenge


Today the organization Fairtrade made a record attempt by organizing the largest fair trade coffee break ever. It was set-up as a competition between the Nordic countries to gather as many people as possible in a coffee break with nothing but fair trade products. The goal was to spread the word of Fairtrade and to emphazise the importance of making conscious choices for the world as consumers. Of course the Maxibit staff joined in with a nice break with fair trade chocolate and typical Swedish gingerbread.

We have been as well exchanged a bit of countries culture by cooking our diner together. It gave interesting result and point of view about for example how a cucumber could be prepared.

The WTCC tour was stopping in Spain in the most important area in Europe for the orange growing : Valencia.
Maxibit HQ was there represented by jean-Michel, and the new Maxibit Spanish partner was there to represented by is owner Augustin who took the opportunity to invite some prospects and some clients to combine business meeting and leisure moments. Together we assist and supply the Race Game company Simbin, the European leader in race games.
Maxibit was in charge of the stand and the beautiful Maxibit Stage print walls have build a perfect race atmosphere in the simulator and computer games tent. The 3 days event was busy on the race track and crowded under the race tent and even the pilots went to race and loved the simulators races.
What was the most interesting for me to see : even on the race car the environment we feel that lots of copany start to do it better: driving with Ethanol engines. The best was that the racing cars propelled by diesel engines was so quiet on the tour! But the quickest too!

Since the beginning of April, Maxibit has given five Students from ‘MediaGymnasiet’ the opportunity to improve their skills and get an insight in the working life. During their nine week internship, the students will work within varying fields of media, all specific to their education. Each student is educated in graphic design, 3D modeling, web design and video.
This innovative project is of great benefit for both parties. The students get the chance to contribute to Maxibit’s strategy by working on specific projects with modern media. Maxibit benefits from their knowledge, ideas and new ways of thinking!

In addition, Maxibit has been looking to gain from the benefit of closer collaboration with international partners. Since March, Sebastian, the son of Maxibit’s Certified Partner in Austria, Gerhard Haselsteiner, has been an integral part of Maxibit in Stockholm. Sebastian will be living and working in Stockholm for a total of four months. As a student of Environmental System Sciences and Business Administration in Austria, he will be working with Maxibit’s Sustainability Policy, as well as on other innovative projects. We hope he will be able to gain an insight into what is done at the Maxibit head office, further understand Maxibit’s philosophy, and tighten the relationship between Sweden and Austria.

Thank you Gerhard for lending us your son – he is doing great things here!
