Revolution Living Chairman and AOL Co-Founder Steve Case to Speak at the LOHAS 10 Forum
Leading Forum for Sustainable Living to be held April 26-28 in Santa Monica, Calif.
(CSRwire) Santa Monica, Calif. - The LOHAS Forum, the leading annual gathering
of thought and opinion leaders in the growing arena of LOHAS (Lifestyles of
Health and Sustainability), announced today that chairman of Revolution
Living and co-founder of AOL, Steve Case, will speak at this year's LOHAS
10 Forum. LOHAS 10 is the premiere business conference and sustainable
living experience. The two day event unites celebrities, business and
media executives, along with non-profits that are committed to moving
sustainable, healthy living and respect for the environment into the
mainstream. LOHAS 10 will take place April 26-28 at the Fairmont Hotel in
Santa Monica, Calif. with Case speaking the morning of April 28th.
"When a business leader like Steve Case turns his focus towards a
burgeoning industry like LOHAS, everyone notices," said Brad Warkins,
president of Conscious Media, executive producer of the LOHAS 10 Forum.
"His influence and presence validate what we in the industry have known
for years - that health, wellness and sustainability are sound living
principles and good business. His investment signals that LOHAS has indeed
reached a tipping point."
"The success of LOHAS companies demonstrate that ideas that once seemed on
the margins are now becoming mainstream," said Steve Case, "as consumers
strive to make better choices, seek to do business with companies they
respect, and buy products and services that promote a more balanced and
sustainable lifestyle."
In addition to Steve Case, speakers at this year's LOHAS 10 Forum include
renowned authors Paul Ray (Cultural Creatives, Corporate
Authenticity) and Patricia Aburdene (Megatrends 2000: Ten New
Directions for the 1990's, Megatrends 2010: The Rise of Conscious
Capitalism). Other program highlights include a Rhythm Village drum
circle featuring special guest Joan Baez; morning Tae Bo session with Tae
Bo founder Billy Blanks; exhibits from companies throughout the LOHAS
industry; an organic tasting room and organic wine tasting.
LOHAS 10 participants will network, share ideas, and come away from the
two days with tangible business insights and new relationships they can
immediately apply into their businesses and organizations.
Revolution Living is dedicated to helping people stay healthy and
fulfilled and believes that environmental responsibility is integral to
healthy living and essential to our world's future.
