About This Event
Join us on April 24th at the Beaver Valley Community Centre in Thornbury for the highly anticipated 2nd Annual Blue Mountains and Area 2025 Sustainability Summit — an essential event for leaders and innovators driving the future of sustainability. Last year’s Summit brought together over 120 attendees from diverse sectors, including businesses, non-profits, and residents, who engaged in compelling discussions and presentations on the Circular Economy and Green Initiatives. This year, we’re excited to continue the momentum and dive even deeper into critical topics such as Social Sustainability and Green Economy.
