Description:

This event will look at how companies, commercial tenants, and start-ups can profit from green building. Our speakers are experienced in delivering integrated, profitable green building solutions that are more valuable to developers, owners and tenants than traditional building projects.

<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--><!--[endif]-->

With proper integration, our speakers have seen their projects result in higher value, lower utility bills, more enjoyable and healthier spaces, a supportive community and more profit for all. They will share their experiences working with real clients to show how sustainable spaces can be a achieved and integrated into a company's strategy - without breaking the bank - and how service providers can help their clients meet their sustainability goals.<!--[if !supportEmptyParas]--> <!--[endif]-->

Whether you are a tenant, landlord, large established company or startup, this program will give you insights into green leasing programs, sustainable building design, and how all can work together to build green.
