The Retail Industry Leaders Association announced that for the second year in a row it will team up with Sustainable Brands for the latter's flagship conference in Vancouver, Canada.
The event, Redesigning the Good Life, covers innovation and sustainability initiatives across multiple consumer-facing industries.
As part of the partnership, RILA will produce a retail-specific educational track focused on the issues, opportunities, and challenges of sustainable retail.
“We initially chose to partner with Sustainable Brands to introduce our retailers to new and innovative approaches to CSR, while continuing to deliver the leadership content historically featured at RILA’s Sustainability Conference,” said Adam Siegel, senior VP of research, innovation, & sustainability, RILA. “The Sustainable Brands community welcomed us with open arms, and I saw last year’s conference as a huge step toward building a lasting partnership. We look forward to building on that experience, and to bringing together our communities again for more transformational content and experiences in Vancouver.”
The 2018 Sustainable Brands conference will be held June 4-7, 2018 in Vancouver, Canada. Pre-registration for the event is now open. Contact Adam Siegel at RILA for special rates for retailers.
