The Strathcona BIA is proud to present its third sustainability expo. This annual event is targeted at local business and property owners, employees, community members, and residents. It showcases the sustainability efforts of Strathcona businesses, provides networking opportunities, and inspires the community to move toward the BIA’s vision of Strathcona as Vancouver’s Green Zone. 

Sustainability 3.0 features an informative and riveting presentation from special guest, Bob Willard. Bob is an expert on leadership, culture change, and organizational development and author of three books - The Sustainability Advantage, The Next Sustainability Wave, and The Sustainability Champion’s Guidebook. He will be sharing strategies for engaging the business community in proactively avoiding risks and capturing opportunities associated with environmental and social issues.

There will also be an exhibition area, a sustainable product marketplace, and a series of mini-presentations followed by a Q&A with the presenters. These presenters include Kira Gerwing, a Planner from the City of Vancouver, and Brian Dodd, Executive Director of United We Can. Attendees will find resources on programs for waste/recycling management, the Strathcona Resource Exchange, energy conservation and much more!

The Sustainability Expo takes place September 28, 2010 from 3 pm to 7 pm at the Japanese Language Hall, 475 Alexander Street.
