In recent years, government has carved out a variety of grants, tax credits, and rebates for corporate sustainability upgrades on Federal, State, and Local levels. Where is the money for these sustainability initiatives? How can your business apply these incentives to justify environmental impact reductions and drive profits? Is your company at risk if these incentives disappear? Our panelists will discuss which opportunities are out there, and which could be eliminated in the near future. In some cases, grants and tax breaks provide a great bonus for businesses mindful of environmental programs and sustainability upgrades. On the other hand, industries like Renewable Energy are heavily supported across the manufacturing, development, and energy production chain, and may be at serious risk if particular incentives are eliminated. At this event, we bring organizations together to learn about opportunities to leverage sustainability incentives and drive profitability in their books and operations.
