ReuseConex 2012: Growing Reuse Communities

The 2012 ReuseConex Conference is coming up, October 18-20 in Portland, Oregon and here at PlanetReuse Marketplace, we’re pretty excited. Not only is Portland one of America’s most beautiful and vibrant cities, but the conference is sure to be an inspiring, informative event for those interested in reusing, repurposing and upcycling.

Our head honcho, Nathan Benjamin, will be presenting, as will a plethora of talented, passionate people (see the full lineup here). An upcycling workshop, the Rebel Craft Rumble and keynote speech by ifixit.com CEO Kyle Wiens are sure to make it an educational, fun few days in Oregon. Oh, and there’s door prizes!

For more information, and to join the Reuse Alliance as we discuss the triple bottom line approach to reuse, go to www.reuseconex.org.

PS: Did you know that Portland was almost named Boston? The city’s founders decided it over a flip of a coin. True story.

See you soon, Portland
