Eco-Advantage Salon Tour in Denver August 22
August 15, 2007
Greenprint Denver and the Denver Office of Economic Development, in partnership with Sustainable Life Media, are pleased to be sponsoring a special local visit with one of today's top green business book authors, Andrew Winston.
Winston is a nationally recognized expert on green business who has served as Director of the Corporate Environmental Strategy Project at Yale University's School of Forestry and the Environment, and as a business consultant for top global companies with the Boston Consulting Group and through his own consultancy practice.
During his stop in Denver as part of a national Eco-Advantage Salon Tour, Winston will be joining local business leaders to talk about how today's smartest companies are becoming part of the "green wave" by adopting innovative eco-strategies and tactics.
In his widely acclaimed book, Green to Gold: How Smart Companies Use Environmental Strategy to Innovate, Create Value, and Build Competitive Advantage, Winston chronicles three years of research on environmental innovators such as 3M, GE, Wal-Mart, Johnson and Johnson, and examines the best practices behind their strategic sustainability plans that can lead to enhanced corporate bottom line values.
Local green "wave-riders" from Sun Microsystems, Johns Manville and MGA Communications, who are already experiencing success with sustainability, will be on hand to discuss their own direct experiences in an interactive panel session. Following the panel discussion, Winston will lead a guided walk through of some of the tools and frameworks he suggests to help you identify where opportunities may lie for your company.
The Salon will conclude with an opportunity to network with Winston, city officials, and local green business leaders over cocktails hosted by DOMANI Consulting and IMA Financial.
Join us for this insightful afternoon on August 22 from 1-5 p.m. at the Oxford Hotel in downtown Denver. As a friend of Greenprint Denver, enjoy a special discount: register online using the code $partner.denver to save 50% off the normal $129 ticket price.
