Online Documentation:
No More Wasted Hand-Outs!
Green Initiatives in minimizing printing and waste are here to stay. With these goals in mind, IIRUSA now publishes 100% of its conference documentation online. Doing so will offers you pre-event and post-event access to presentations, AND eliminates the wastefulness of producing of documentation books. Now you have the power to preview the presentations before arriving at the conference, and printing/saving what you’d like to bring with you.
Bringing the Event Outdoors: An NRDC Tip for Energy Efficient Lighting
Atop the bluffs of La Jolla, CA, overlooking the legendary Torrey Pines Golf Course and the majestic Pacific Ocean- why not get some innovation inspiration outdoors at the hotel venue. Enjoy outdoor lunches and networking at the conference- all while saving the energy of lighting the conference venue during this time.
A Convenient Travel Location: Only 15 Miles from the Airport
With convenience and global warming pollution in mind, we chose the Hilton Torrey Pines…only 15 minutes from the San Diego airport. Visit the website to see the easy public transportation and carpooling options to get to and from the event.
