Green Is: Digital provides a conversational space for digital professionals who are interested in how green business means good business, one that affects the bottom line and where sustainability is most definitely, sustainable. The event strives to foster a high level of networking while inspiring ideas for action and innovation.

We will be showcasing researchers, companies, strategists, generalists to tell their story and rally up a sense of positive green morale – that it is possible to do good and be economically sound.. We are different in the way that our targeted members are digitally savvy and will most likely use media and technology to solve the green challenge.

Our salon style event will be held at Meet at the Apartment in Soho, NYC. Meet has garnered a reputation for its outstanding professionalism, unique and artistic space as well as an intimate environment which has proved welcoming for creatives, companies, and executives. Some of the most innovative ideas and robust dialogues have converged at Meet http://www.welcometomeet.com

Muji

Muji is a retail company which sells a wide variety of household and consumer goods.

MUJI is not a brand whose value rests in the frills and “extras” it adds to its products.MUJI is simplicity – but a simplicity achieved through a complexity of thought and design.

MUJI’s streamlining is the result of the careful elimination and subtraction of gratuitous features and design unrelated to function.

MUJI, the brand, is rational, and free of agenda, doctrine, and “isms.” The MUJI concept derives from us continuously asking, “What is best from an individual’s point of view?”

MUJI aspires to modesty and plainness, the better to adapt and shape itself to the styles, preferences, and practices of as wide a group of people as possible. This is the single most important reason people embrace MUJI.

MUJI – in its deliberate pursuit of the pure and the ordinary – achieves the extraordinary
