LUCKILY FOR ALL OF US BAG-ALLERS THE FOUNDER AND OWNER OF BAG-ALL, JENNIFER JANSCH, LIVES ON THE PARADISE ISLAND OF BALI IN INDONESIA. RECENTLY BAG-ALL STAFFERS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD GATHERED IN BALI FOR OUR YEARLY CONFERENCE.
DURING THESE FOUR AMAZING BUT BUSY DAYS, WE EXCHANGED IDEAS, BONDED WITH OUR CO-WORKERS, FELT OUT NEW PRODUCT IDEAS, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, PLANNED FOR THE FUTURE. DURING 2020, WE WILL INTRODUCE NEW PRODUCTS, SUSTAINABILITY CONCEPTS, AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROJECTS, AND WE CAN’T WAIT TO SHARE THEM WITH YOU.
Here is the pool in the rented Airbnb Villa a few of us Bag-allers stayed in.
Why does founder and CEO, Jennifer Jansch, live in Bali you may wonder? There are a few different reasons - most of them are environmental. Her children go to Greenschool (check it out on greenschool.org), our production is based in Asia, and she also works on sustainability projects based in Indonesia. At Bag-all, we try to practice what we preach, and we all make the adjustments that we can in order to make this planet a better place, but back to this later on.
We stayed one night at the beautiful Warwick hotel in Ubud. Here is the pool area.

In the beginning, this conference consisted of two people, our founder, Jennifer Jansch, and our Vice President, Julia Arhammar. This year, it was nine of us who went, and we couldn’t be more excited about the growth of Bag-all, and of all the collaborations, partnerships, and hard work that go into this.
This conference isn’t just a wonderful opportunity to get together and talk about the future, but also to talk about the past. We evaluated the past year and exchanged knowledge, experiences, failures and successes, so that we can keep getting better. By meeting Bag-all representatives from different regions, we learn so much about our customers across the world and about their unique preferences, expectations, and creative ideas regarding how to use our products.
