I wanted to reach out and let you know that registration for VBSR’s 30^th Annual Conference on September 22nd is now open! Due to COVID-19, the conference this year will be held virtually.  While we will miss seeing folks in person, we hope that holding a virtual conference will enable more people to attend the event and alleviate any potential health and safety concerns. 

As businesses rebuild and plan for the future, we have an opportunity to chart a course that moves us “forward” toward a regenerative economy – one that is equitable, resilient, and sustainable. 



The Annual Conference will explore three themes: Anti-Racism, Business Resiliency in the Era of COVID and The Climate Crisis.

This full-day virtual event will include a keynote address from MaryAnne Howland of the Global Diversity Leadership Exchange, a panel discussion with Vermont’s Federal Delegation, and 9 interactive workshops, as well as time for networking and self-care. Topics will explore the unique issues and opportunities that each of the themes present, as well as the points where they intersect. Attendees will emerge inspired, connected with forward-thinking leaders, and empowered with resources and concrete action steps to drive change.

Check out the full agenda here.

Register here.

Please extend this invitation to anyone in your network who may be interested.

Because this event will be held virtually this year, the price point of the ticket is significantly lower than in previous years. We hope you are able to join us as we work together to create positive change in Vermont.

All the best,

Toby
