Program Session
Keynote Interview: Dan Hendrix in conversation with Joel Makower
Interface is one of the most iconic companies in the business of sustainability, consistently leading the pack on corporate sustainability and creating a vision for all industry across dimensions of people, process, product, place, and profits. In 1994, founder Ray Anderson challenged his company, and the rest of the business world, to consider a different way of doing business. Now, almost 20 years later, CEO Dan Hendrix will speak to the progress the company has made in its commitment to sustainability, what they've learned along the way, and how the company continues to carry out Anderson's vision on the journey to Mission Zero.
