A Conference to Check Out: Mark Your Calendar for SXSW Eco This Fall

The SSC Team April 5, 2016 Tags: , , Strategic Sustainability Consulting No comments

Like TEDTalks, we love hearing from the world’s best and brightest. This year’s SXSW conference in March had some interesting forums on niche sustainability issues – like diversity in the sustainability field and greening the Super Bowl – but SXSW Eco is where the conference organizers devote an entire three-day conference on environmental and sustainability issues.  

To get your mind racing, catch up on the 2015 SXSW Eco Sessions now, read this guest blog about renewable energy, and talk yourself into booking that fall trip to Austin.

Have you attended a worthwhile conference that we should put on our radar? Let us know in the comments!
