Networking from, for and with Alumni

On April 23, over 40 alumni from the University of Bremen visited the Utamtsi coffee roastery as part of the event series "Networking by, for, and with Alumni." The participants not only learned about the exciting company history but also gained insights into fair trade practices, social responsibility, and the art of coffee roasting. An inspiring and delicious experience!

What did the University of Bremen mean for your subsequent career? That’s a question our one-hour Alumni Talks are here to answer. In January, the one doing the answering was Enzo Frazzon, who came to Bremen from Brazil in 2006 to do his doctorate. He then worked as a scientist at BIBA (Bremer Institut für Produktion und Logistik). His connection with Bremen and the university is still very close today, both academically and personally. He is now Professor of Logistics at the Department of Production Engineering at the University of Santa Catarina in the southern Brazilian port city of Florianopolis and is also a Research Ambassador for the University of Bremen. The Hanseatic city has become a second home for Frazzon’s family of four, who like to spend time together exploring the city and its surroundings by bike. Frazzon brought that experience into his Alumni Talk presentation, delivered in the form of a faithfully detailed cycling tour map – a logistician through and through.
