Sustainability and Temporary Events: SXSW Panel turned Podcast

Originally scheduled for Friday the 13th, House of Scandinavia was due to host a discussion of sustainability in temporary events. Moderator, Amy Stansbury of Austin EcoNetwork, was to lead panelists Cecilie Svegaarden, Scandinavian Airline; Cindy Y. Lo, Red Velvet Events; Andreas Groth Clausen, Roskilde Festival; and Kara Wright, US Business Council for Sustainable Development in a conversation regarding the responsibility event organizers have to create experiences that are culturally, socially and environmentally sustainable.

In the wake of the SXSW 2020 cancellation, House of Scandinavia will remain in Scandinavia and the panel will not exist in its originally intended format. Instead, local event professionals and sustainability enthusiasts will join the Shades of Green Podcast on March 12  which airs every Thursday from 1-2 pm on 91.7 FM KOOP. You can also catch recorded episodes posted on the program’s website.

Stay weird. Stay green.
