ABOUT GLOBE 2010

20 YEARS OF ACCELERATING SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS STRATEGIES

The GLOBE™ Series of Conferences and Trade Fairs are North America's largest and longest-running international event series dedicated to the business of the environment.

GLOBE brings together leaders of business and government to discuss current trends and to showcase innovative technology solutions for the world's environmental problems. Every two years, over 10,000 participants from 80 countries gather in Vancouver, for GLOBE generating well over $400 million in new environmental business.

Government decisions makers, corporate executives, and environmental technology innovators engage in high-level dialogues about pressing environmental issues such as corporate sustainability, clean energy, climate change and carbon management, finance, and building better cities. We have brought in a host of well-respected individuals to help make the business case for eco-efficiency, including HRH Prince Philippe of Belgium, former Prime Minister Paul Martin, Maurice Strong, Klaus Töepfer, John Prescott, Mark Moody-Stuart, Amory Lovins and Ray Anderson.

GLOBE Series events have been used to preview innovative ideas and major multilateral processes for corporate and industry leaders from around the world in advance of major international gatherings such as the Rio and Johannesburg World Summits.
