Business and a Sustainable Environment
(base) is a major new annual business-to-business event that will take place at
London ExCeL on 15th-16th
October 2008.
The forum will be the first large-scale event to link the goals of profit and sustainability and will aim to provide attendees with the solutions, partners, and information they need to reduce their impact on the environment profitably.
The event will feature a raft of top speakers and is backed by an advisory board featuring a number of influential business and environmental leaders, including Tom Burke CBE, MPs Peter Ainsworth and Chris Huhne, and Friends of the Earth Director Tony Juniper.
BusinessGreen is proud to be an official Associate Partner of base and from later this summer will be able to offer readers a discounted rate for attending the event. More details of which will follow in the coming months.
