Ed Morrison · Sustainability: The advantages of slower growth
September 17th, 2008
Up at the Lowe Foundation for a retreat. One of my colleagues is from Sustainable Business Network Philadelphia.
An interesting insight from our discussions this morning: Older, slower growth industrial regions may have a competitive advantage in implementing new strategies and tools for sustainability. The reason: Sustainability strategies are much more difficult to implement in fast growing regions.
More on the opportunities on slower growth cities from Lev Gonick.

Thanks, Grace! People from all over the country are here. They all run ESO’s (entrepreneur support organizations). It’s a lot of fun.

Yes Ed, slow is the new fast. Fast is fast in and fast out. Nothing sustainable is fast out.
The oxen are slow, but the earth is patient.
