Ambassador Kresse Wesling has been named as one of Management Today's '35 women under 35'.

In no particular order, the list identifies young high-fliers who have the potential to rise to the very top of their industry.

Last year, the 31-year-old and her partner launched the Elvis & Kresse Organisation (EaKo), a social enterprise which transforms industrial waste into lifestyle accessories, such as bags and belts.

Kresse also founded the environmental packaging firm Bio-Supplies, while in her early twenties and later created Babaloo, a company that produces a range of ethical and environmental products for parents and babies.

In 2007, Kresse was crowned Shell's 'entrepreneurial woman of the future' and she is the British Library’s advisor for social entrepreneurs.
