Can Businesses Save the Planet by 2030? | Vancouver

About this event

There’s never been a more important time to collectively become more aware of how we—as individuals, corporations and businesses—are affecting the planet. It’s also vital to understand why sustainability strategies are not only vital to protecting our environment; they’re also essential growth strategies for modern businesses.

While many innovations cite being environmentally friendly as a bonus perk, few innovations, whether financed by big corporations or academic institutions, are truly driven by this cause. Fortunately, to counter this, an increasing raft of firms are looking into solving some of the biggest environmental issues of our generation: global warming, sustainability and the negative effect modern lifestyle is creating.

Join our panel discussion, which will be putting the spotlight on eco-friendly firms who are taking concrete steps to lessen their environmental footprints or helping others to lesson theirs. We'll explore why they do what they do, how their innovations are changing the world and making it more sustainable as we speak, and tips for companies looking to embark on a greener journey of their own.
