“Sustainable Life Media announced the top 12 Sustainable Brands Innovation Open (SBIO) finalists who will be given a full pass to the conference along with the opportunity to pitch to the Innovation Open judges and attendees on Thursday June 9 in the Steinbeck Theater. Finalists are required to present a live pitch to a panel of judges and will have shared exhibit space during the conference.
“There is an amazing array of finalists this year,” said KoAnn Vikoren Skrzyniarz, CEO of Sustainable Life Media (SLM).   “We had more entrants that previous years across both consumer and B2B sectors, including energy creation, social innovation, cause communications, personal care products and socially responsible financial access.  The range of creativity we will be showcasing during Thursday’s competition is truly inspiring and not to be missed. We encourage the investment community (VCs, Angels and private investors) to attend SBIO to be inspired by these new ideas, vote for favorites and meet the winners and finalists.”
