Net Impact celebrates 20 years when it comes rolling into the Baltimore Convention Center today for its annual conference.
A San Francisco-based nonprofit, Net Impact is focused on supporting businesses that focus on “sustainability, corporate responsibility and social entrepreneurship,” and boasts a membership community of more than 30,000 members, according to its website. Broadly speaking, the Net Impact organization, which is chapter-based with more than 300 on undergraduate campuses and graduate business schools around the world, has its eyes on the triple bottom line: profits, people and planet.
This weekend’s conference will bring together “more than 2,800 changemakers from all over the world and 300 dynamic speakers from across industries, from Fortune 500 companies to emerging nonprofits,” according to the conference website. The goal there? To educate people on such subjects as cleantech, social innovation and entrepreneurship, community development and urban revitalization and more.
