Be Sustainable at Sequoya: Meet the Authors of ECOpreneuring

September 12th, 2009 Alicia

It’s attainable! Be sustainable in September with a series of sustainable living programs at the Sequoya Branch.

On Wednesday, September 23 at 7 p.m., join Livia Kivirist and John Ivanko for a talk on their book, ECOpreneuring: Putting Purpose and the Planet Before Profits. Part small business manifesto, part personal finance primer, ECOpreneuring is essential reading for small business owners, prospective entrepreneurs, social entrepreneurs starting non-profit organizations and anyone who dreams of a livelihood based on independence, creativity, passion, and a commitment to green practices and sustainability. Join the authors as they talk about their book and their fresh and dynamic approach to entrepreneurial thinking, blending passion for the planet with small business pragmatics and smashing the stereotype the “doing good” and “running a business” can’t go hand in hand.
