Zurich, Switzerland; San Francisco, CA, USA 22 March 2016 - Leading sustainability solutions provider South Pole Group will guarantee that a series of live events in the Sustainable Brands® Global Conference Network will be fully powered by renewable energy. This will entail taking stock of the power usage of select Sustainable Brands events and ensuring that the corresponding amount of renewable energy is being produced and sourced from a connected power grid.
This newly announced partnership underlines South Pole Group’s transition to an integrated global provider of sustainability solutions with a strong focus on renewable energy. At the same time, it represents an important strategic decision by Sustainable Brands, as it cements its commitment to reducing the environmental impact of live events and sets new standards with respect to organizing truly transformational events focused on sustainability-led brand innovation.
The multi-faceted, renewable energy partnership will offer stakeholders the best of both organizations - both of whom are celebrating their 10-year anniversary this year: high-class information resources and events that provide new opportunities to profitably innovate for sustainability. Together South Pole Group and Sustainable Brands plan to create customer value by:
