An extraordinary array of talent headlined by acclaimed actress Sigourney Weaver, scientist David Suzuki and musician/humanitarian Bob Geldof will examine what it takes for businesses to be sustainable over the long term at an event in Melbourne on April 26 2012.

Corporations, People & the Planet - aims to bring together businesspeople, environmentalists, academics, young people and scientists for the common cause of ensuring the future of the planet.
