Gain a competitive advantage for your business while creating positive social and environmental impact on your community.
Don’t miss the 2008 Social Venture Institute, the only conference on the East Coast dedicated to teaching entrepreneurs about the Triple Bottom Line. What is the Triple Bottom Line?

Learn how the Triple Bottom Line can increase your competitive advantage, then learn easy and effective ways to incorporate the Triple Bottom Line in your business strategy.
Find out about innovative capital solutions for funding needs and non-traditional funding sources for green business initiatives.
Network with a diverse group of local entrepreneurs and nationally recognized Triple Bottom Line business leaders including Melissa Bradley-Burns, President of New Capitalist, Andy Shallal, Founder of Busboys & Poets, and Tom Szaky, Co-founder of TerraCycle.
Hear first-hand how pioneering companies are creating positive social and environmental impact on their local communities and the global economy, all while making a profit.
