This year\u2019s topic is \u201cStart Small, Think Big: Simple, Sustainable Ways to Improve Your Bottom Line.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>The luncheon will feature a panel discussion, focused on tangible practices that are meant to make your business more sustainable and profitable. Featured panelists include; Mr. Luke Cartin, Senior Mountain Environmental Affairs Manager for Vail Resorts, Ms. Lindsay Arell, Sustainability Programs Manager for the Colorado Convention Center, Mercedes Quesada-Embid, Professor of Sustainable Studies for Colorado Mountain College and Janet Burgesser, Environmental Business Assistance Coordinator for the City and County of Denver. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe event will offer businesses practical ways to implement green practices to improve their bottom line. Whether it\u2019s a lighting upgrade to more efficient lamps or a waste reduction project, the panelists will discuss real-life examples of projects that both help the environment and reduce costs,\u201d said Jennifer Schenk, executive director of Eagle Valley Alliance for Sustainability.<\/p>\n<p>As the official resource and advocate for local businesses, Vail Valley Partnership strongly believes in bringing timely and relevant educational events to the valley. Sustainable practices of individual businesses contribute to the overall well-being and economic vitality of Eagle County. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sustainability is more than a trend or buzzword \u2013 it&#8217;s a way to save money for your business and in your daily life. We are excited about partnering with the Eagle Valley Alliance of Sustainability to bring an expert panel and having them share their successes and tips with the audience,\u201d said Chris Romer, executive director of Vail Valley Partnership. <\/p>\n<p>Tickets to the Big Green Think are available at $30 for VVP or EVAS members and $35 for non-members. <\/p>\n<p>RSVP\u2019s are required.
