In less than one week, 1,000 senior business executives, entrepreneurs, and distinguished leaders from the public sector and civil society will gather at the BSR Conference 2010 to gain the insights and connections they need to integrate sustainability into strategy and core business - a necessity for success in today's fast-changing world.

The BSR Conference 2010, "Innovate. Integrate. Inspire.," takes place from November 2 to 5 in New York and features:

• Forward-looking CEOs, including Avon's Andrea Jung, Monsanto's Hugh Grant, and Rockefeller Foundation President Judith Rodin, who are tackling sustainability challenges - and delivering solid financial, social, and environmental results.


• Inspirational speakers such as The 99 creator Naif A. Al-Mutawa, Museum of Modern Art Senior Curator Paola Antonelli, and Women for Women International Founder and CEO Zainab Salbi.


• More than 40 practical and interactive sessions on topics from sustainable consumption and climate change adaptation to conflict minerals and human rights.


• A social networking site where participants can start a discussion, search for attendees, schedule meetings, and stay informed of last-minute Conference updates.


• Results from an annual survey of BSR's 250 member companies on the "State of Sustainable Business" (to be released November 3, with experts available for media interviews in person and by conference call on November 4 from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. EST).
