Madison, Wis. – The Wisconsin Sustainable Business Council (WSBC) will hold its 15th annual Sustainability Conference Nov. 15 & 16 at Green Bay’s Lambeau Field. This year’s theme is (R)Evolution of Sustainability – Bringing the Green to Green Bay. The conference provides an opportunity for manufacturers throughout the state to collaborate with and learn from business leaders and sustainability professionals. The 2022 event will reflect on advances in sustainability since the Conference inception and highlight the role sustainability can play in addressing critical issues such as cost containment, environmental impacts, employee retention, and how to gain access to new markets.
The event kicks off on Nov. 15 with presentations from program sponsors plus tours of the world-famous Lambeau Field. An award reception follows at Miron Construction Titletown, to honor the recipients of this year’s Sustainable Business Awards. On November 16, Packer CEO Mark Murphy will open the WSBC Conference, which runs from 8:00am-5:00pm at Lambeau Field. The morning keynote is Laurie D. Andrieate, CEO of Appvion, LLC and the afternoon keynote is a panel on Environmental, Social and Governance requirements for business.
New for 2022, the conference offers concurrent networking and breakout sessions, as well as demonstrations of WSBC’s updated Green Masters 2.0 sustainability program, which is available free of charge to all WSBC members.
The Conference has become a must-attend event for organizations across Wisconsin. “There are two reasons I make it a priority to be there,” said Patrick Cain, VP of Operations for General Plastics. “First, the networking—no other event connects you to both high-caliber sustainability experts and companies that are facing the same challenges you are. And second, because I always come away with an idea I can implement pretty much as soon as I get back to work. The Conference really is that good.”
Added Jessy Servi Ortiz, managing director of WSBC, “It’s been a rough couple years for Wisconsin businesses. We understand what they’re facing, and we’ve worked hard to deliver a conference line-up that’s worth their time.”
