Event Details

About the Workshop Panels:

Words like “sustainable”, “green” and “eco-friendly” can have vague connotations, especially as more and more businesses join the green movement.

Learn the legal ropes of marketing green and some leaner, greener marketing strategies for your business at our half-day, 2-panel workshop.

The first panel will feature legal experts and branding specialists to share strategies for maximizing impressions with likely consumers and expertise on what businesses can and cannot proclaim about being green.

Marketing professionals in the second panel will cover trends in marketing to a green-centric audience, alternatives to high-impact advertising, and ways to reach on-the-fence consumers contemplating buying green.
