Where Can You Find Green Business Conferences?

Establishing a community is an important part of any endeavor that challenges the status quo, and the evolution toward green business practices is no exception to this rule. Environmentally conscious business owners can network with other green business owners and learn about new eco friendly methods by attending green business conferences.

One such conference is known simply as the Green Business Conference. Sponsored by CoopAmerica.org, it was held for the first time in 2007 in Chicago . 2008’s event will be held in San Francisco in November, and great attendance is expected.

Organic meals are served throughout the entire conference and speakers represent many different types of industries, from health foods to cosmetics.

Testimonials from attendees pay tribute to the value of this conference and are visible on the conference website. According to one attendee:

This year, on a total lark, I decided to travel to the Green Business Conference and the Green Festival. The conference and festival were eye-opening, enlightening, and edutaining. I made many great connections. The visit to Clif Bar was a treat for more than the palate."
