Seeking for inspiring individuals: The jury of the CHANGEMAKER category

Writer's picture: BSABSA

The Rimi Baltic Sustainability Awards team is really proud that the Jury working on the evaluation process is represented internationally; there are 29 jury members from 12 different countries! The Jury has been working hard to determine the finalists, and the moment of finalists' announcement is almost here- November 25 (that's tomorrow!) But as we are waiting for results, let's use the time and get to know the Jury members of the awards. Next (and last) up - CHANGEMAKER category!


Let's be honest, this category is special, as we were not looking for companies and their achievements, we were looking for individuals. Aspiring individuals are making a lasting effort for sustainability, bringing attention to the needed change, acting as an example to follow, or educating and inspiring others to act. During this evaluation process, the jury will have selected 3 changemakers in every Baltic country and at the awards ceremony we will find out who is the one winning changemaker in each of those countries. But until then, let's get to know the jury behind this category.


CHANGEMAKER Jury Lead

Every team has that one person who is the backbone and holds the team together and our Changemaker jury is not an exception. Let's meet Sasha Lipman, CHANGEMAKER category jury lead. Sasha is a Founder of tech2impact. She has been responsible for leading the jury process and aligning the opinions of our knowledgeable jury members to reach the finalists' list for each Baltic country.


Sasha is a multi-skilled professional, who loves challenges in a fast-paced environment. She is passionate about impact tech and connecting people to create and launch new ideas.
