The debate is over. The verdict is in. We all know that the world’s environmental, social and economic challenges require the wholesale embrace of sustainability. The past few years show that companies that adopt sustainable practices realize a marked improvement in their competitive market position and their bottom line. Much of the needed technology is ready. Numerous high impact operational and management practices have been proven. And both the government and the financial community have begun to prioritize funding for activities with positive environmental and social impacts.

The challenge now is to move quickly. The 2010 Summit is all about hastening the pace at which effective sustainability strategies and practices are integrated into businesses, large and small. The Summit will bring together hundreds of leading business, government, academic and nonprofit organizations from across the country and the globe to accelerate the adoption rate. The Summit has been recognized for consistently offering an exceptional program that delivers real, actionable substance. Now is the time to take action!
