BEBS was honored to host Audrey Leibfried, Henkel’s Global Purchasing Manager, Thermal Management & Metals, for an engaging session that combined insights into Henkel’s innovative business strategies and exciting recruitment opportunities for our students.

This initiative was a collaborative effort with Consultancy Business Agency (CBA), who played a key role in coordinating the session and providing inputs in today’s inovation challenges.

Henkel: A Global Leader

Henkel, with 147 years of innovation, is a global leader in adhesive technologies and consumer goods, spanning laundry care, home care, and beauty products. Their impact is immense: every second, 20 people use Henkel’s Schwarzkopf hair products, and 25 billion laundry loads are cleaned annually with their detergents. Committed to sustainability, Henkel has reduced CO2 emissions by 61% and incorporates 19% recycled plastic into its consumer packaging.

Building the Bridge Between Industry and Academia

Henkel’s visit to BEBS showcased how academic institutions and global leaders can work together to drive meaningful change. Students gained firsthand insights into Henkel’s sustainable practices and cutting-edge technologies while exploring career opportunities within a company recognized for its innovation.

At BEBS, we pride ourselves on creating platforms where students can engage directly with industry leaders. With the support of CBA, this collaboration not only highlighted Henkel’s global impact but also inspired our students to think creatively and develop innovative solutions.
