The Michigan "GreenUp" Conference is designed to be a valuable experience for sharing information, networking, and learning. This year's theme is Cultivating Next Generation Solutions. Green chemistry and engineering are about designing, innovating, and manufacturing what's next and developing less hazardous, more effective materials, processes, and products. Green chemistry and engineering can help businesses create new markets, reduce costs, increase safety, and gain a competitive edge. For chemists, engineers, industry executives, educators, students, entrepreneurs, decision makers, policymakers, and anyone interested in innovation and sustainability in Michigan, this conference is the opportunity to hear from leading experts and share solutions to "green up" Michigan through green chemistry and engineering.
