Where You'll Find Us in September

Sadly, this summer is coming to an end. We've had record-breaking heat waves, earthquakes and hurricanes. Maybe we aren't that sad to see it go. On that note, let's ring in the next season with some great conferences and events!

To get us started this fall, Audrey Davenport is speaking on a sustainability panel at the Private Equity Summit for Institutional Investors on September 15-16 in San Francisco.  

Next on September 20, Andrew Hutson, Lee Coker, Jake Hiller and Namrita Kapur are attending the first Citi-EDF Innovations in Energy Efficiency Finance event.

Also on September 20, The GIBN Solutions Labs are picking back up in Indianapolis, where you can meet Beth Trask, and come up with an unconference agenda that works for you.

To help close out a very successful summer and great class of fellows, the EDF Climate Corps team will be at EDF's Breaking Down Barriers to Energy Efficiency: An EDF Climate Corps Network Event September 21-22 in Cambridge, MA.

Emily Reyna is participating on a panel at The CR Commit! Forum in New York City on September 27. The panel is on "Building the Next Generation of Sustainable Business Leaders," featuring EDF Climate Corps alumni Ryan Whisnant (Director of Sustainability at SunGard, 2009 EDF Climate Corps fellow at SunGard) and Stuart DeCew (Program Director and Yale School of Business and the Environment, 2010 EDF Climate Corps fellow at RBS/Citizens Bank).

Victoria Mills is moderating a panel at EnerNOC's EnergySMART conference in Boston on September 27 called "Managing GHG Emissions: Reducing Energy Waste, Increasing Profitability." Participating on the panel are representatives from Genzyme, adidas and the Boston Globe.

Beth Trask and Justin Olsson are hosting, with InnoCentive, an invitation-only workshop on environmental innovation for business, called "Can Open Innovation Save the Planet and Deliver Business Value?" at the EDF-San Francisco office. If you are interested in participating, please email us at business@edf.org.

Sitar Mody is moderating a panel at the Green Initiatives Conference and Expo in Ft. Lauderdale on September 30 about "Breaking Down Barriers to Energy Efficiency in Companies." Sitting on the panel will be representatives from CA Technologies, Wells Fargo and QTS.

Look for us at these conferences – and let us know if you'll be there so we can watch for you as well!
