Looking for Green Product Innovators to Present at 'Greener by Design'

Published March 17, 2009

Tags:

Greener World Media is accepting inquiries for innovators from both small and large companies to do lightning-fast (6-8 minute) presentations at Greener by Design, May 19-20 in San Francisco, our annual conference aimed at corporate designers, brand managers, and marketing, supply-chain, and sustainability professionals.

Innovators must have a breakthrough product or material that has wide application or interest to our mainstream corporate audience.

We are NOT looking for food products, cosmetics, or clothing -- we ARE looking for packaging materials and designs and B-to-B or B-to-C products with out-of-the-box innovations.

In addition to their presentations, invited innovators will be given exhibit space in an "Innovators Pavilion."

Interested? Send a 1-page letter along with a few images or web links to innovation@greenerworldmedia.com. We'll notify you by April 15 if we are interested in talking further.

Joel Makower is chairman and executive editor of GreenBiz Group Inc., producer of GreenBiz.com.
