Platform Green Launch Party

 

Join us, along with Marc Alt, for our inaugural event for the 2007-08 AIGA Miami season. We kick off the season in total green fashion with the launch of Platform Green. Focusing on environmental and sustainable issues around our community.

This event welcomes any and all guests that want to join in. We welcome members and non-members alike as we share the power of design and sustainability.

Guest Speaker: Marc Alt
Co-chair of AIGA's Center for Sustainable Design, talk about their mission and what designers can do to incorporate green thinking and sustainable practices into their professional lives.

As a board member of the AIGA (American Institute of Graphic Arts) NY Chapter, Marc developed the concept for and chaired the first conference dedicated to the intersection of design, sustainability and business in New York City. The conference featured presentations by senior executives from Wal-Mart, Johnson & Johnson, Osram Sylvania, IDEO, Russell Design, Cook+Fox Architects, Material ConneXion, Flag, ValueNewsNetwork.com, UN Global Compact and many other leaders of industry.

MAP (Marc Alt & Partners), is a design and brand strategy firm specializing in environmental strategy, innovation and sustainability.

We will also introduce our board and welcome any and all questions, suggestions, or feedback you may have for us. We continue to strive to bring you professional design resources and act as a mediator between you the designer and the professional world of design.

AIGA Miami continues to bring you professional design resources, inspiration and connections that will help bridge our community with the professional world of design.
