Spring has sprung here in the Northern Hemisphere and we're fully embracing the emergence of the new—ideas, materials, projects and presentations. With all the buzz surrounding spring presentations, design weeks, conferences and the like, we thought this would be a perfect opportunity to chat with a select group of experts about sustainability practices driving innovation.

Join the Core77 editors (@core77) and Eastman Innovation Lab (@Eastman_EIL) for a lively discussion about how sustainability practices are driving innovation. We'll be joined by Nanette Stowell of @Patagonia, Heidrun Mumper-Drumm (@mumperdrumm) of Art Center, Dawn Danby (@ecoworkshop) of Autodesk and Nathan Jones of Fluid Technology Solutions (@ftsh2o) who will share their thoughts on sustainnovation and material R+D for the future.
