Sustainable Brands 2010 Launches Connext(TM) Online Community and Event Elements to Nurture Growing Community of Global Collaborators
Proving the Power of AND, New Online Community Tool and Cross-Connection Activities Link New and Returning Members at Monterey (CA) Conference June 7- 10, 2010
SAN FRANCISCO, April 29 -- Sustainable Life Media today announced the launch of Connext(TM), a new online capability that will facilitate collaboration activities at Sustainable Brands 2010's "The Power of AND" conference. Powered by CrowdVine, the system will link more than 750 brand leaders and executives from organizations like Adobe, Bumblebee Foods, eBay, Wal-Mart and Yahoo! In addition, the online network will foster connections among the global Sustainable Brands community using software to encourage relationship building, networking and sign-ups for specially-designed Birds of a Feather Dinners, which are unique evening gatherings optimized to encourage interaction. Un-conference programs and aligned separate tracks will also allow for instant groupings and mash-ups that facilitate ad hoc creativity and connections.
"We believe that by creating conditions for effective collaboration across silos, industries and stakeholder groups, we can help accelerate innovation and fuel the growth of sales tied to more sustainable value propositions," said KoAnn Vikoren Skrzyniarz, CEO of Sustainable Life Media. "Through continued deployment of better digital community building tools, the spirit of collaboration that has always uniquely existed in our community will continue to expand, even as our community continues to grow."
"Sustainable Brands is advancing the whole sustainability conversation to a new level through the amazing range of speakers, presentations and hallway conversations that inspired so many productive new thoughts and partnerships," said Nancy Mims, Founder and Creative Director of Mod Green Pod following last year's conference.
Learning to identify and execute on the "ANDs" is a key component of the Sustainable Brands 2010 curriculum. The Cycle of Sustainable Innovation (Observe, Redesign, Measure and Communicate) will provide a consistent framework for presenting best practices, key learning, cutting-edge tools and techniques. Sustainable Brands 2010 will equip attendees with the tools and skills to become or remain a brand leader for the future.
