The SJF Summit on the New Green Economy, which coincides with SJF’s 10th anniversary, brings together entrepreneurs, investors, policy makers, and community leaders to share strategies for investing in and building the new green economy. The Summit will be launched with a keynote from Nicholas Parker of Cleantech Group LLC, which has helped catalyze the exponential growth of North American cleantech investment to $5.9 billion in 2008, and will also include keynotes by: Jeff Wolfe, chief executive officer of groSolar; Majora Carter, principal of Majora Carter Group; and Martin Eakes, founder and CEO of Self-Help Credit Union and the Center for Responsible Lending. In addition, eight CEOs from cleantech companies will discuss innovative business strategies, and more than 15 investors, economic developers, and green job leaders will share best practices. Join us and be inspired by innovative businesses and organizations which are creating green jobs, and take away useful strategies, policies and best practices for your company, organization or region.
