What is the PDX Lounge
From November 6 - 8, 2007 the PDX Lounge Oregon business network descended on Chicago for a series of business, educational and best-practice engagements for professionals working in and around sustainable industries. Taking up temporary residence within the 20,000 square foot Chicago Illuminating Company, PDX Lounge was a dateline destination for multiple audiences. Greenbuild conference attendees, business leaders, industry practitioners, news media and political influentials gathered, discussed, shared and evolved innovation in sustainable economic development.
