Event - Rethink Sustainability Initiatives (RSI): Action Partners

This event will take place on Wednesday, November 20, 2013, 10:30am to 3:30pm at MaRS Discovery District, 101 College St., Toronto. Rethink Sustainability Initiatives (RSI) is where leaders who care about sustainability can learn from experts and the real-time experience of their peers – to build it successfully into their businesses — via interactive events, think tanks, publications and other means.

A special keynote presentation and lunch meeting with Sir Richard Branson’s Carbon War Room COO Peter Boyd. In addition to delivering a keynote presentation, Peter Boyd will also be participating in the open forum Leaders Circle with Daniels Carbon, Lafarge, KPMG and other action partners. This diverse group of leaders will share their expertise and commitment to addressing key sustainability challenges facing our environment. Their discussions will focus on actionable ideas and solutions to reducing carbon emissions, as well as strengthening the resilience and future readiness of buildings and cities – throughout the supply chain and beyond.

There will also be an announcement about a new initiative that Rethink Sustainability Initiatives is developing with the Carbon War Room and other partners; some of whom will be attending the event too.

They anticipate a robust and action-oriented conversation amongst senior leaders and decision-makers who are committed to accelerating the discovery and adoption of profitable, breakthrough solutions that reduce carbon emissions and advance the sustainability and resilience of business and society.

Eight senior leaders from North America and Europe will be part of the Leaders Circle
