Socially Responsible Business Awards

Arran as keynote speaker at the annual awards breakfast, to be held Thursday, September 24, at 8:30 am in the Convention Center. Not sure you’re aware of the awards, but they’ve been given for more than 14 years as determined by an independent board of industry-based judges to companies that best exemplify the ideals of socially responsible business in the natural products trade. We usually bring in from 300-400 industry members. You can see more information, including a list of past winners, at http://www.sociallyresponsibleawards.org/

If you spoke, you’d be in great company. Recent past speakers have included Gary Erickson and Kit Crawford, Michael Funk, Gary Hirschberg and Steve Demos. Each keynote presentation lasts about 20-25 minutes. Subject matter is open, but usually includes some history and stories about the company’s efforts at sustainability as well as some inspirational comments for the folks who are making it happen at their respective companies.
