2009 Net Impact Conference makes lasting impression

The inaugural Australian Net Impact Conference was held at Melbourne Business School on Friday 9th October, 2009.

Net Impact is an international nonprofit organisation with a mission to inspire, educate, and equip individuals to use the power of business to create a more socially and environmentally sustainable world.

Co-hosted by MBS and AGSM, the conference highlighted the positive steps that emerging business leaders are taking to create this better future.

Four Australian universities were represented, underscoring Australian student commitment to social and environmental sustainability.

More than 100 delegates - including many from the professional sector - gathered to listen to local and international speakers discuss topics ranging from social enterprise to clean technologies to CPRS.

"The day provided an amazing opportunity to hear brilliant speakers," said co-organiser and MBS Net Impact Co-President Gill Cashion.

"I'd like to thank everyone who helped make the Conference happen. It was a great success".

The second Australian Net Impact Conference will be held in October 2010.
