Sustainability in Business
Vision, Practice & Education

(Twin Cities, MN)

The Sustainability in Business Conference will provide an opportunity for businesses and educators to successfully develop leaders able to compete and manage the change brought about by this important global trend.

Sustainability covers the interconnection between the economy, society, and the natural environment, the imperative for equitable distribution of limited resources, and equal access to opportunities. In business, sustainability has long been associated with the ability of a firm to steadily increase revenues and earnings, indirectly linking it to the topic of corporate longevity. While this is still a goal, the modern firm cannot neglect its connections to and dependence on society and the environment if it wants to be sustainable. Unless business initiatives are consciously linked to all three components, firms are only viable, tolerable or charitable. The conference will address business knowledge and skills, best practices, resources and information related to sustainability, and sustainability in a global world.
