"Green Marketing and Eco-Innovation: Strategies for Success (Half Day Workshop)"

The secret to winning at the Green Marketing game is to start by developing truly greener products. Oftentimes, that means first “eco-innovating” —developing innovative new product concepts or business models that create a win-win for manufacturer or service providers and consumers—better products, affordable and credible. Then one needs good green marketing that is transparent, engaging and educates the consumer without a hint of greenwash.
