Hi, Amy-

Thanks for getting back to me. Would you be able to tell me a little bit about how Hanley Wood has managed to green their event productions, then?

Thanks again,

Barrett Brown

Hi Barrett

 

Thank you for your email.  I am not very familiar with other company's practices specifically when it comes to the financial impact of greening their shows. I can speak to what Hanley Wood has found, but I wouldn't be comfortable commenting on events that aren't ours.

Hi, Amy-

I'm a freelance writer who's been asked to write an article on green trends in the convention display industry for a new publication, and I understand that you'll be one of the speakers at the Green Event Summit next month. Would you be willing to give me a couple of quick quotes on the subject? If so, I'd be very grateful.

Here are the questions:

1. What mistakes have you seen companies make in their attempts to institute greener event productions?

2. Can you give me an example of a company that has managed to save money by adopting green strategies in the realm of event management, and how those cost savings came about?

About the publication: 360 is a monthly custom publication sent from Radius Display products to approximately 5,000 of their clients, who are primarily display dealer owners, sales managers and project managers. This article will be featured in its first issue, which is due to publish at the end of June.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,

Barrett Brown
