Music by Paul Prince, eats by Wild Duck Catering, delicious Ninkasi beer and King Estate wine will round out the celebration. Big Green Events is working to make this a ZERO WASTE EVENT! You do not have to be a GreenLane member to attend! We welcome all business members of Lane County (and beyond) to come see what we are about!

Keynote Speaker: Joshua Skov, Chair EUGENE SUSTAINABILITY COMMISSION. Joshua Skov is a principal of Good Company,a Eugene-based research and consulting firm. He serves as chair of the City of Eugene's Sustainability Commission. Josh has worked with dozens of government agencies, corporations, non-profits and universities on carbon footprinting, sustainability strategy and related consulting. Josh is also an occasional instructor of corporate sustainability and corporate climate strategy in the MBA programs of the University of Oregon and the University of California, San Diego.

We will also be awarding our first annual Daniel Swantek Memorial Scholarship Award to one of our GreenLane members. The award is in honor of Daniel, one of the founders of GreenLane, who passed away suddenly last year. Daniel is remembered for his dedication and passion towards helping us all to create a more sustainable community. In recognition of a member who embodies this in their work and business, we will announce the 2010 winner of this award at our event! The "scholarship" part of the award goes towards education about sustainability.

ARCIMOTO will showcase their 4th Generation Platform Prototype.  It is the latest prototype of their ultra efficient fully electric three-wheeled vehicle, featuring comfortable seating for two, highway-capable speeds, and superior handling. They expect to enter the market later this year offering multiple range and body options. Based in Eugene, Oregon, Arcimoto is producing the everyday electric, a vehicle featuring extreme efficiency, daily utility and a grin-inducing driving experience that won't break the bank.
