Learn how to turn green into black while feasting on white, red or pink. Join fellow business owners at the Annual Chamber BBQ. Mel Phadtare, a sustainability expert is the keynote speaker sponsored by Community Futures.
Is Green the new black? What, exactly, is Sustainability? Receive an overview of sustainability – who
is doing what – and a breakdown of the real costs and benefits.
You’ve heard about Sustainability, feel
that you should be doing something; however, you’re not really sure what
“getting involved” means. How can you
make a difference? What are your
choices? What is the impact on the bottom line, your customers, your employees
and your ability to grow your business? Drawing on 10 years experience with
sustainability projects in Sydney, London and more recently in Vancouver,
as Director Integrated Sustainability for Junxion Strategy, Mel Phadtare will
address these questions and explore what is happening world wide and on Vancouver Island. www.junxionstrategy.com
