| | Dear Mary Ann, I am pleased to invite you to attend Hudson Gain's panel, The Business Case for Going Green, at the conference, Jumpstarting the New Green Economy, May 19-21 sponsored by Fairleigh Dickinson University's Institute for Sustainable Enterprise in Madison, NJ.The conference brings together business, not-for-profit, government and university leaders in multiple tracks to explore the leading edge of Sustainability. You will discover what needs to be done -- and what you can do, individually and organizationally -- to accelerate the shift to a new, more sustainable paradigm.
As Hudson Gain's Sustainability Practice Leader I will facilitate this highly interactive panel: The Business Case for Going Green, Wednesday, May 20th from 10 am to 12 noon with panelists:
· Edward G. Madzy, Director, Product Regulation/Stewardship, BASF Corporation
· Dave Stangis, Vice President, Corporate Social Responsibility & Sustainability, Campbell Soup
· Kevin Tubbs, Director, Environmental Affairs, Ingersoll Rand
· Hugh Tole, Director, EH&S, Corporate Environmental & Safety Affairs, Roche
· Ronald H. Reisman, Business Energy Ombudsperson, New Jersey Board of Public Utilities
Panelists will share their organizations' experiences and ROI in embracing the green economy. The results: cost savings, profits, new products, new customers, engaged employees, enhanced brands. You will hear how to access the best-ever-but-little-known state and federal programs to save your organization money this year through financial incentives for improving energy efficiency. Panelists' success stories will demonstrate that going Green can yield a faster, better return-on-investment than traditional ways of doing business -- even in this difficult environment. | | For more information about the Conference:
Go to http://jumpstartgreen.org/ to see the conference agenda and to register. Conference keynotes, panels and action-learning workshops will be devoted to corporate sustainability and business models for the new growth paradigm, the current state of green business, green investing, green building, green chemistry, renewable energy, green ventures and funding, green collar jobs, government and community programs, etc.
Hudson Gain has co-sponsored other highly successful events with Fairleigh Dickinson's Institute for Sustainable Enterprise, including last year's Conference and a panel on The Role of the Chief Sustainability Officer in Corporations (see our research study on the topic at: http://www.slideshare.net/RThorne/HudsonGain-Sustainability-Study-20081015 | | Please circulate this widely.
