The international Jägermeister Scholarship is now running for the 12th time. This time, ten participants from nine countries can look forward to three months of coaching from Jägermeister. India, Turkey and Kenya are participating for the first time.
Wolfenbüttel, 11/04/2024 – This year’s Jägermeister Scholarship runs now. As in previous years, the high-profile mentoring programme will take place virtually, allowing participants to continue working in their businesses. A total of ten young talents will have the opportunity to further develop their bar culture skills, expand their network and strengthen their individuality as bartender. The participants are Andrea Pasquali from Austria, Jonathan de Goede from Finland, Lukas Ratschenberger from Germany, Santosh Kukreti from India, Jordan Duncan from Ireland, Kelvin Mwiti Muthee from Kenya, Tristan Jacobs from South Africa, Volkan Yavas from Turkey and Stephanie Hornemann & Kathryn Jennings from the UK.
„I am particularly pleased that we are reaching even more young talent this year. India, Kenya and Turkey are three new markets. This is an important step in supporting and networking the next generation of bartenders worldwide with our scholarship“, says Nina Eggeling, Senior Manager Global Culture & Experiential Marketing, Mast-Jägermeister SE
Since 2012, Jägermeister’s international development programme has offered young bartenders the exclusive opportunity to focus on bar culture, exchange ideas and learn from top-class mentors. One of them is Nils Boese, Jägermeister Global Brand Ambassador. He will be available to the participants on a regular basis. There will also be three masterclasses. Eddie Rudzinskas, founder of cocktails4u in Ireland, and Marian Benke of the BellBoy Group in Berlin, one of the world’s most renowned bartenders, will be among those sharing their knowledge. Creative challenges and project work will round off the programme. The Jägermeister scholarship is one of my favourite scholarships. It’s so important to me to accompany and support young bartenders on their career path – and it’s so much fun,’ says Nils Boese.
The participants will post their impressions on their own social media channels as well as on the official Instagram channel of the Hubertus Circle: @hubertus_circle_
