Topic for this Conversation:  Patagonia’s Road to Regeneration



Vincent Stanley will talk about the evolution of the company’s culture, its recent stepped-up activism and public engagement, and what it sees as the responsibilities of business to help reverse environmental (and social) desertification. He’ll also talk about the company’s new role supporting regenerative organic agriculture and how the company came to adopt a simple new mission statement, “We’re in business to save our home planet.”
