The GIN conferences, 32 events in 15 countries around the world since 1991, comprise a unique record and experience of bringing people and the issues together for a big perspective on sustainability, forging productive connections among research, policy, and practice. “Public and Private Strategies for Sustainable Regional Development” An International Conference jointly organized by the Greening of Industry Network, University of Twente and Tecnologico de Monterrey Mexico City, April 18-20, 2012 GIN has a long and thoughtful history for the exchange of knowledge and innovative perspectives on greening and sustainability. To build on this tradition and history, the topic of the conference in Mexico is on regional sustainable development. We see to focus on the ability of multiple actors to facilitate a transformation to sustainable societies on regional geographic scales. This topic has been a long-standing and complex issue within GIN. A core question which drives the aim of this conference is: Can collaborative strategies by multi-stakeholders facilitate the conditions towards sustainable regional development models? The conference aims to answer this and other questions which may arise during the conference. Very importantly it aims to facilitate discussion among stakeholders by sharing management and policy strategies towards sustainable regional development. Further details about the Call for Participation can be found in the website conference http://www.egade.mx/wps/wcm/connect/EBS/EGADE+Business+School/GIN2012/Submission. Reception of abstracts has been extended to 20th January 2012 as deadline. Call for Participation for GIN2012 launched: “Support your future today! Turning environmental challenges into business opportunities” Linköping, Sweden, October 21-24, 2012 The GIN2012 conference will be organized in Linköping in the county of Östergötland, Sweden. The conference is scheduled for 21—24 October, 2012. It will be combining plenary sessions and workshop presentations/dialogues with information and knowledge sharing between stakeholders in the county of Östergötland and the conference participants. The county is known for its “Triple Helix” basis for innovative SMEs and bio-fuel production synergies. Sweden is strongly focused on clean technology innovation processes and the application of renewable energy. The title of the GIN 2012 conference: “Support your future today! Turning environmental challenges into business opportunities” reflects the approach. The themes of the GIN2012 conference will challenge the participants in sharing knowledge in fruitful dialogues about innovative industry scenarios. The first Call for Participation recently was launched on the Nobel day, 10th December 2011. GIN2012 will also mark the start of the third decade of the network.

GIN2010 ‘Climate Change and Green Growth: Innovating for sustainability’ June 13-16, 2010, ASEM Hall COEX Convention Center, Seoul, Korea Climate change is the single most critical issue actively discussed all over the world. The Korea government declared ‘Low Carbon Green Growth’ as a top priority policy agenda in August 2008, and is about to present a voluntary carbon emission reduction target. Since we anticipate that more countries will join our common efforts to reduce green house gas emissions after Copenhagen Summit, we need to pursue the right way to cope with climate change together with developing countries. As a host of GIN2010, KEMA (The Korea Environmental Management Association) welcomes you to the GIN2010. We promise a fruitful academic and cultural program, an excellent networking opportunity, with special entertainment. We will arrange meeting with editors of major journals during the Conference so that high quality contributions can be published in the journals.
