Brief topic introduction:

For businesspeople, entrepreneurs and executives, the health and sustainability markets are billion dollar opportunities. Whether your industry is architecture and design, finance, human resources or something else, all will be impacted by the wellness revolution already underway, and by the growing sustainability revolution that is in its infancy today. Jason Inch will present some of these key concepts from his new book LOHAUS: A Lifestyle of Health and Urban Sustainability, read a short passage from the book, and facilitate a discussion about how you can benefit from the opportunities.

Three things you will learn:

• New concepts for health and sustainability in an urban environment
