ArchBishop Tutu, a Nobel Peace Laureate, lead a crusade for social justice and racial conciliation in South Africa as then-General Secretary of the South African Council of Churches. Today, he is revered worldwide as a "moral voice" seeking to end poverty and human rights abuses.
Tutu's many accomplishments include receiving the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984; the Albert Schweitzer Prize for Humanitarianism; and the Magubela prize for liberty in 1986. He is committed to stopping global AIDS and has served as the honorary chairman for the Global AIDS Alliance. In February 2007 he was awarded Gandhi Peace Prize by Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, president of India.

The Greenbuild International Conference & Expo has experienced tremendous growth since it's inception in 2002. USGBC has worked through many challenges to accommodate the demand for new exhibit space as many eager and well-respected companies contact us each day. Our goal is to service our existing exhibitors and accommodate new companies that are interested in exhibiting at Greenbuild within the limited space available.

Exhibit space for the 2008 Greenbuild International Conference & Expo in Boston, MA is assigned by the procedures outlined below:
1. 2007 Greenbuild exhibitors selected and purchased space for Greenbuild 2008 while on-site at Greenbuild 2007
2. Companies who were on the official Greenbuild 2007 wait list (completed a 2007 application), will be offered a 10' x 10' booth space for Greenbuild 2008. This will be completed by January 31, 2008.
3. New companies who contacted the Greenbuild Show Management company prior to Greenbuild 2007 and on-site at Greenbuild 2007 will be contacted in early February, 2008 and offered the remaining space. All new companies are also limited to a 10' x 10' booth.
