The Future of Business: 2010 and the New Economy
This year's conference will answer the pressing questions: What is working for businesses in 2010? This is a conference for everyone: General Business, Green Building, Food & Farming, and Energy! In a world that's been "reset" by a sharp worldwide recession, accelerating climate change and a collapse of trust in business--the implication and opportunities for local business are enormous. Billions of dollars are being invested to stimulate the economy and most of that money is going toward energy efficiency. The local food sector is soaring. There are new opportunities in the building industry through building perfocmance and energy efficiency. Localization is a new marketing tactic for all - big/small and near/far. Now is an essential opportunity to learn how to leverage your resources, implement changes, and succeed in a world where business as usual is no longer viable. Come and learn what these changes in the marketplace and the new economy mean to your business.
