Regional stakeholders will gather at GoGreen Phoenix, Thursday, Dec. 6, for a day of solutions, collaboration, dialogue and strategic insights focused on building the business case for sustainability and catalyzing it as an economic driver in a state hit hard by the recent economic recession.
Much has changed since the GoGreen Conference made its debut in the Valley in November 2011. Intense national elections and a new mayor in Phoenix reflect a complex, evolving political climate; and still shifting economic sands have made clearer the financial, environmental and social impact of sustainability practices on both enterprise and government operations. Organizations of all sizes, sectors and industries are aggressively looking for ways to work smarter and with less impact — indeed consumers and constituents alike demand it.
Renowned business and government leaders will present keys to their success in sustainability at GoGreen Phoenix via a platform of workshops, keynotes, plenaries and resource galleries. Attendees will also get ample opportunity to connect and collaborate with each other through networking breaks and a hosted reception sponsored by Arizona State University’s Global Institute of Sustainability.
