INSPIRING THE INSPIRED SUSTAINABLE INDUSTRIES ECONOMIC FORUMS OFFER THOUGHT-PROVOKING EDUCATION, DIALOGUE AND NETWORKING FOR SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS ADVOCATES Green Business Publication Announces Third Year of Economic Forums in Four Cities

SAN FRANCISCO (July 7, 2010) - Sustainable Industries is thrilled to announce its third annual Sustainable Industries Economic Forum series serving sustainable business leaders throughout the West Coast.

The annual Sustainable Industries Economic Forum series aims to inspire business leaders looking to gain in-depth strategies for how to integrate sustainability into their business plans and operations. By providing exposure to thought leaders and dynamic entrepreneurs in multiple West Coast cities, the forums offer a unique opportunity for business leaders to engage in dialogue and power-networking centered around sustainable business issues specific to their region.

"It's important to have a forum for those who have carried the sustainable business torch and innovated to find ways to continually challenge themselves to go further and do greater work," said Brian Back, Founding Editor and Publisher of Sustainable Industries. "Being able to elevate the dialogue and the thoughts of what is possible in today's world spur sustainable business further."

The Sustainable Industries Economic Forums-which will take place in San Francisco (September 16, 2010), Portland (September 17, 2010), Seattle (September 23, 2010) and Santa Monica (January 2011)-will each offer a thought-provoking keynote address, interactive discussions with local sustainable leaders, and networking and dialogue between attendees to foster relationships within the green business arenas in these cities.

This year's luminary keynote speaker is Cameron Sinclair, winner of the 2006 TED Prize and co-founder of Architecture for Humanity, a nonprofit that seeks architectural solutions to global crises and serves the international community by acting as a conduit between the design industry and humanitarian needs. Past forums have featured renowned speakers such as Van Jones, Ray Anderson, Paul Hawken and Arianna Huffington.

Tickets to Sustainable Industries Economic Forums in all cities are $75.00 each, $975 for a table of ten (includes a front table with company signage) or $55 for students with a valid student identification card.
