Information & Agenda

Go Green!
AeA Midwest Council Green Technologies Program

Technology companies world-wide are responding to the calls to lessen their environmental impacts. Recent studies show that 40% of technology executives are saying that consumers are asking them for more environmentally products.

And those companies are answering. Hardware and software companies are working to reduce waste, use recycled materials, eliminate hazardous materials and overall, reduce their carbon footprint on the environment. Software companies are creating programs to help companies reduce energy output and strategize better for more environmentally sound production.

AeA�s Midwest Council Green Technologies: �GO GREEN� is a comprehensive program to help you learn best practices, laws & regulations that may affect your company, how to implement cost savings while greening your company, and how you can make a difference by positively affecting the environment.

Join AeA, premier technology companies, state and local advisors, and our keynote speaker and sponsor, Intel for this informative and timely program.
