Nextgreen Global Berhad successfully hosted the Nextgreen–University Engagement Series 2026: Sip & Share – Inclusive Careers in Green & Sustainability on 11 April 2026 at Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM).

Jointly organised with the Faculty of Biotechnology and Biomolecular Sciences, UPM, the initiative underscores a shared commitment to nurturing future-ready talent within the green and sustainability sectors.

Aligned with Nextgreen’s ESG principles, and inspired by the spirit of International Women’s Day and the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, the programme championed inclusivity, diversity, and equal opportunities within the green economy.

Set against the scenic Bukit Ekspo in a relaxed, picnic-style setting, the student-centric event featured a series of engaging activities, including interactive panel discussions, live Q&A sessions, a mini Nextgreen product showcase, a resume clinic, and hands-on DIY craft activities.
