SAN FRANCISCO, CA - April 22, 2009 - Answering the call for direction in a world that's been "reset" by a trio of global crises-the sharp worldwide recession, accelerating climate change, and a collapse of trust in business-the BSR Conference 2009, "Reset Economy. Reset World.," will provide business leaders with strategies for delivering business value and embracing long-term sustainability trends.
Registration for the Conference, which takes place at the Hyatt Regency in San Francisco October 20 to 23, 2009, opened on April 15.
"The implications and opportunities for business in this 'reset economy' are enormous," said BSR President and CEO Aron Cramer. "Now more than ever, companies need to think big and create innovative sustainability strategies to deliver business value and successfully meet the greater challenges ahead. The BSR Conference is an essential opportunity for business leaders to learn how to leverage resources, implement changes, and succeed in a world where business as usual is no longer viable."
Recently named one of the top 12 influential executive gatherings for 2009 by Forbes.com, the BSR Conference has been revamped this year to feature an exciting program allowing participants to customize their agenda with the topics, level, and length of sessions that are right for them:
