What’s the Conference Like?

Our annual conference is Indiana’s premier waste reduction and recycling event, featuring exhibitors from around the country involved in all aspects of waste reduction, reuse, recycling, and composting. We also offer educational sessions that cover current topics and issues in those same fields, and featured speakers who sometimes give us a different take on what we are doing and why. Learning from each other, gaining new professional contacts, and providing attendees with the tools to do more waste reduction & recycling are prime goals of our conference. We do our best to make all this happen in a fun, inviting atmosphere!

Attendees include administrators, program directors, purchasing agents, sales representatives, and educators from a wide variety of organizations. There is something for everyone:  – Healthcare sector / Local health departments

– Solid waste & recycling professionals – Colleges and universities

– Design/build industry – Hospitality industry

– State and Local Governments

– NonProfit Organizations

– Faith community / “green” sanctuaries movement
