Set for Nov. 12, this year’s theme is “Growing Green: Developing a Sustainable Florida” and features local experts and many from around the state and country. Jacksonville Port Authority CEO Rick Ferrin is one of the scheduled speakers during the summit that runs from 8 a.m.-6 p.m. and includes four panel sessions and a reception afterwards.
Throughout the day, the panelists will provide scientific, legal and policy perspectives on developing a sustainable Florida through green efforts.
