Event – Accelerate: Collaborating for Sustainability Conference

Accelerate: Collaborating for Sustainability Conference, will take place on June 10 – 11 2013, in Guelph, Ontario. This conference focuses on the prescient topic of collaboration as it applies to sustainability. Change-makers throughout society are increasingly calling for greater collaboration to solve complex challenges, especially around sustainability issues. But there is precious little expertise in how to convene diverse groups and steward multi-stakeholder change processes.

In response, The Natural Step Canada will host “ACCELERATE: Collaborating for Sustainability”, a two-day national conference to convene sustainability practitioners and kindred spirits to learn on the “bleeding edge” together, share successes, and seed potential collaborative initiatives.

Join over 200 leaders, social innovators, and decision makers from large and small businesses, corporations, higher education institutions, government, non-profits, social enterprises, social venture capital firms, and more in exploring how we can effectively collaborate to create a sustainable future.

•Hear from world-class sustainability experts and industry leaders on topics such as “Why Collaboration Matters”, “Redefining Success” and “Exploring Collective Impact and Shared Value.”
•Network with sustainability professionals from a variety of sectors and industries
•Collaborate and share your expertise with others on issues that matter to you and participate in collective action to accelerate the change toward sustainability

This gathering will be ideal for sustainability leaders in multinational businesses, large and small Canadian businesses, higher education, government, non-profits, social enterprises, social venture capital firms, and more.
