Tellus Institute will host the inaugural meeting of the Sustainable Business Academy
Friday February 7, noon, Tellus Institute will host the
inaugural meeting of the Sustainable Business Academy. Speakers will be Eric
Hudson, the CEO of Preserve, a dynamic, environmentally-focused lifestyle
company; and Halina Brown, Professor of Environmental Science and Policy at
Clark University, and a Tellus Associate Fellow. We look forward to an exciting
dialogue between a practitioner and an academic.
The Sustainable Business Academy aims at bridging a gap
between three groups: Businesses, Academics, and Social Innovators from
non-profits, government etc. This gap appears as different languages,
different styles of communication, and different outcomes that each group is
aiming for with regard to the ‘New Economy.’
The SBA aspires to:
1) Share knowledge and best practices across
these sectors
2) Draw attention to work being done in terms of
education and research, and
3) Gain resources – for funding research,
starting ventures, and supporting non-profits.
