During Green & Growin’ 16, keynote speaker Bob Dolibois will share how horticulture in the U.S. became an industry with a larger economic impact than Hollywood.
“Bob’s perspective, particularly regarding what lies ahead, is a must-hear for our industry,” said Corey Connors, executive vice president of the North Carolina Nursery & Landscape Association. “We’re honored to have him share ‘the world according to Bob’ as our Keynote Conversation at Green & Growin’ 16.”
The nursery and landscape industry has gone from clipboards to computers–and from operating comfortably under the radar to experiencing increased governmental and regulatory scrutiny. Dolibois, who led the American Nursery & Landscape Association (a predecessor to AmericanHort) through 21 years of both tumultuous growing pains and boom times, will tell the tale of that evolution with insight and humor during the keynote breakfast. He’ll also share experiences from his recently released book: “Back Then to Right Now: The Horticultural Industry Comes of Age.”
