Reflections on the 2023 Symposium
For the second year in a row, Sustain SC hosted its Sustainability Symposium at Central Energy in Columbia. It was a rare opportunity to bring sustainability leaders with South Carolina-based companies together with leaders from statewide government, conservation and business to rally around elevating South Carolina as the future of commerce and conservation. This year’s event centered around the sustainable revolution happening across a myriad of sectors and provided a platform for the unveiling of The Roadmap to Sustain SC.
The morning session kicked off with opening remarks from State Senator Chip Campsen and closing remarks from State Senator Tom Davis. The agenda included a panel discussion delving into the many building blocks of forming a resilient state and a special presentation from keynote speaker Kathleen Biggins, Founder and President of C-Change.
The second half of the day focused heavily on ushering South Carolina through a sustainable revolution and a call to action, including the results of a recent study about the untapped economic opportunities related to sustainability. Governor Henry McMaster returned as guest speaker and John Sacksteder, President of Mark Anthony Brewing, joined us as the afternoon keynote speaker.
Designed to inform, inspire, and forge new connections, the Sustainability Symposium exceeded expectations and provided an optimistic outlook marking South Carolina as the future of commerce and conservation.
