Event Details

Hear from innovative companies who are developing products, systems and initiatives to make NYC a model for sustainable urban development.

 

With skyscrapers, congested streets and limited pockets of green space, New York City might not fit your typical image of a sustainability hub. However, it’s actually this dense urban landscape that provides a living laboratory for testing and implementing sustainable initiatives, from green infrastructure projects to renewable energy innovations.

On March 7, join the Downtown Alliance for a discussion with the innovative companies who are developing products, systems and community efforts to make NYC a model for sustainable urban development. You’ll learn about the progress these organizations have already made and their goals for the future, as well as how you can get involved in the movement.

Speaker include:

Marisa DeDominicis, Executive Director, Earth Matter NY
Lenore Kantor, Founder, Growth Warrior (moderator)
Warrie Price, President, The Battery Conservancy
Gail Tierney, Senior Corporate Volunteer Coordinator, Billion Oyster Project


The panel discussion will be followed by structured networking.
