Topic: “Gr$$ning Your Business: Practical Ideas and Bottom Line Benefits For Small to Mid-Sized Businesses”
When: Wednesday February 28th, 2007 from 8:00 A.M.-10:30 A.M.

Environmental sustainability has hit the mainstream. Big companies are making major commitments to greener operations. They’re finding that sustainability has significant bottom line benefits. Now they are looking for vendors and suppliers to demonstrate their own commitment to sustainability.
Find out how you can respond to this emerging trend and stay on top of your client needs, making your business more sustainable and a healthier place to work, as well.
Event includes:
• Free breakfast and networking
• “Green” exhibitors that will introduce you to new business resources
• An exciting, informative panel discussion, with panelists on energy savings and incentives, green cleaning, and green paper and office supplies

You’ll leave with a packet of specific tips that you can apply in your company!
This is the first of three Manhattan Chamber events for 2007 on environmental sustainability for small to mid-sized businesses. Our June 14th event will focus on restaurants and food-based businesses.
