Introducing The
Green Event Summit, June 12-13 at the Sheraton Palace
Hotel in San Francisco. The Green Event Summit is the most comprehensive
conference yet on the subject of eco-friendly events and will
bring together hundreds of executives from Fortune 500 companies,
show organizers, independent planners and representatives from
leading event venues and suppliers. Join us for an important
2-day dialogue and educational forum about the environmental
issues that will impact how you create, produce and execute
meetings, corporate events, special events and shows.
Produced
by Red 7 Media, publisher of Event
Marketer, Event
Design, EXPO,
and Agenda
magazines, The Green Event Summit is the first conference to
bring together representatives from every facet of the event
business to discuss green issues, trends and best practices.
According
to a recent survey, 41 percent of senior marketing and sales
executives plan to implement green initiatives within the event
function within the next 12 months. And, nearly two-thirds of
those respondents (59%) say they are “going green”
to meet a corporate responsibility mandate.
If
“going green” is on your to-do list, then this event
if for you.
