In the Community: Trish Speaks at BCIT School of Business

Trish was invited to speak at the BCIT School of Business CEO Salon Series on sustainability yesterday with fellow panelists David Labistour (CEO of Mountain Equipment Co-op) and Meghan Spong (Publisher at Benjamin Brown Books). Each panelist provided insights into sustainable business practices in their respective industries, as well as what they felt needed to be addressed in business schools.

An interesting discussion took place about the concept of triple bottom line reporting, impacts of technology and regulation, and what companies have to do to remain competitive while maintaining sustainable business practices. The BCIT School of Business filmed the entire session at the Burnaby Campus, and will be making the video available to its students.
