Sustainability Roundtable Inc.’s (“SR Inc”) market-based approach to more sustainable operations has never seemed more important.

SR Inc’s invitation only Summit is the premiere conference for executives who set the agenda for more sustainable corporate real estate and operations.  In an intimate and interactive setting, it will once again feature global thought leaders, national public sectors leaders and scores of companies leading the move to more sustainable high-performance.

Participants will learn from SR Inc’s original, authoritative, Executive Guidance & Tools developed through more than seven years assisting companies leading the global move to more sustainable operations. Moreover, participants will learn directly from leaders such as:

  • Anthem speaking about advancing Sustainably Healthy Workplaces
  • Bloomberg speaking about how to score and report millions in sustainable savings while growing rapidly
  • Cisco about the Internet of Things enabling sustainable operations and
  • Salesforce about how companies in 100% leased space can help accelerate the Renewable Energy Revolution

Three Mutually Reinforcing Revolutions:

The Summit’s specific focus is on what those setting the agenda for corporate real estate and operations need to know to move to more sustainable high-performance in 2017. Three mutually reinforcing revolutions will be examined that, together, are transforming what is profitable in corporate operations.

1st revolution is one of focus; a new generation of fast growing, global, corporations is waging a war for discerning knowledge worker talent – and these workers demand operating strategies focused on human health & productivity.

2nd revolution is the explosion of data and mutually adaptive technologies known as the Internet of Things (“IoT”) which enables most all items to be measured and therefore begs the question: what should be managed?

3rd revolution is renewable energy that is actually a set of globally scaled technologies that are iterating and undergoing step changes in efficiency as they drive exponential adoption curves across the world and encourage enterprises of all types to consider the possibility of Net Zero Greenhouse Gas (“GHG”) emissions.

From Containing Costs to Creating Value:

These three revolutions (i.e. Healthier Workplaces, the IoT and Renewable Energy) make it possible to imagine a move to corporate real estate and operations that are, by 2030, not polluting and health degrading by design but are, instead, designed to help profitably regenerate our global ecology and personal health.

For more than seven years SR Inc’s SBER service has examined these three accelerating revolutions and what practical corporate real estate and sustainability executives have been doing to profit from them. Alongside leading experts and many of these corporate leaders, participants will be provided actionable SR Inc Executive Guidance & Tools and examine what they need to know about relevant technical, market based and regulatory change. All to help them profit from these three related revolutions as they help move real estate and operations from a perceived cost center to a sustainable value creator.

Request an Invitation: 

Interested operating and sustainability executives should request an invitation to SR Inc’s Summit in D.C.  Participants gather as revolutions towards Healthier Workplaces, The IOT and Renewable Energy are beginning to transform corporate operations. Items that seemed impossible only a 24 months ago – such as 100% renewable energy and workplaces that help make you healthier – are beginning to emerge as best practices. Best practices that SR Inc can guide you in through its provided, authoritative and actionable Executive Guidance and Tools available nowhere else.

Interested executives should contact SR Inc Sustainable Business & Enterprise Roundtable, Program Manager, Brittany Doherty at: brittanydoherty@sustainround.com, 617-682-3630
