Inogen® hosts another First Class Inogen WorldView® Conference
27th April 2011, Bad Nauheim, Germany
The conference, 'Resources make the world go around - Is your business sustainable if your primary resources become limited or unattainable?' addressed how businesses prepare for, prevent, react to or avoid the adverse effects of resource scarcity on productivity, profitability, feasibility of projects and corporate image.
More specifically the conference addressed four key areas of resource scarcity; water, energy, mineral and land resources.
The key note address was delivered by Dr. Birgit Spießhofer of Counsel Salans LLP, Berlin. Dr. Spießhofer spoke about environmental justice and corporate responsibility, discussing the significant and growing ecological, political and humanitarian challenges brought about by the imbalance between human population density and the geographical distribution of depleting natural resources.
Other speakers from the conference included Tim Copeman, Group Assurance Manger from Coca Cola Hellenic; Professor Dr. Stefan Gäth, Professor of Waste and Resource Management at Justus-Liebig University, Giessen and Dr. Klaus Schneider, Chief Technology Officer at Schluchseewerk Aktiengesellschaft, Laufenburg.
Peter Penning, President and CEO of Inogen was delighted to see so many clients of Inogen and Associates attend the conference;
"This is such a hot topic and we were delighted to hear from first rate speakers presenting their thoughts and experiences on these challenges that increasingly face organisations of all types from around the world. This conference has created an opportunity for everyone to learn from peers and apply the latest thinking on resource conservation into their own organisation."
The conference concluded with a drinks and canapés reception at the Dolce Bad Nauheim Hotel in Bad Nauheim.
The next Inogen WorldView® conference is scheduled for April 2012 in Toronto, Canada.
