Location: WSU Innovation Center 120 North Pine Street, Spokane, Washington 99202, US

Mark Odegard of Measure Meant brings a whole new level of understanding to corporate responsibility for startups.

There is significant research showing that consumers expect brands to focus on sustainability. And a common theme we’ve heard from startups is they don’t have time to think about sustainability. Startups that don’t incorporate sustainability do so at their own peril. This presentation focuses on why sustainability should be a central part of your business. Topics include:

– What we mean by sustainability
– Why should you do it
– Ideas on the approach

Thank you to our sponsor, Greater Spokane Inc.
