       In just 5 weeks, business leaders from around the globe will convene in San Diego, CA, for what is shaping up to be the largest and most inclusive set of conversations to date about how sustainability thinking is changing the landscape of product and service design, brand strategy, marketing, communications, finance and human resources.

Over 2,000 innovators from a diverse mix of global corporations, leading non-profits and promising start-ups are coming to compare notes and make further progress on integrating sustainability principles, as key drivers of business and brand value, deep into the identities of their organizations. These companies are raising the bar on what will be expected of tomorrow’s brands. Will you join them?

Here is just a small sample of the many topics up for discussion during the week:

  • How to innovate for complex consumers such as the Aspirationals and the Millennials, with input from Starwood Hotels, Clorox, BBMG and GlobeScan
  • What HR incentives have been effective in facilitating wide-reaching corporate sustainability agendas at Intel, Unileverand Vancity
  • How to make collective progress towards greater transparency and effective utilization of supply chain scorecard data, featuring expert thinking from Microsoft, Life Technologies and Target
  • How to translate technical effort and complex impact data into effective consumer-facing communication, based on the latest work at PUMA, The Rainforest Alliance, and others
  • What new products and services are arising around profitable reclamation of waste at Interface, 3M and Sprint and more
