About the Meetup
Ecopreneurship Definition
The Salton Sea dvdrip “Ecopreneurship is an existential form of business behavior committed to sustainability. Ecopreneurs are counter-cultural or social entrepreneurs who want to make a social statement, not just money. They benefit not only from free advertising, given their advocacy of a public good, but from a strong sense of individual and team motivation since their objective taps into social and political as well as economic needs.” – From the book “Making Ecopreneurs: Developing Sustainable Entrepreneurship”
The Green Option
The green economy has limitless growth and many are discovering it can displace existing products and services with a new “green option”. The newly minted ecopreneur is finding many opportunities becoming available with a captive audience riding on the heightened public awareness of sustainability. Ecopreneuers are not only leveraging the collective mindshare by providing “the green option”, they are also promoting the cost-effective solution to their customers. New technology and new approaches to the new economy are reflected in our meeting/networking series.
Our Mission
Our group serves the burgeoning ecopreneur. If you are interested in sustainable green tech, our group provides educational presentations and networking. For all of those interested in making a difference and helping us build a sustainable economy please feel welcome to join us!
The Meeting
We meet on the 2nd Thursday of each month at (NEW TIME) 7:00PM (6:00 for networking). The meeting format:
1. Starts with attendees having the opportunity to announce Green Tech: business news, job openings, fundings, etc.
2. Presentations follow from several front range businesses who will share their new Green Tech or inventions focused on sustainable living (short presentation, short Q&A).
We hope to inspire involvement, share knowledge of Green Tech, and support ecopreneurs getting started. We provide a Green Tech ecosystem of eco-businesses, eco-Human capital, and eco-investors.
