What is AzBAS?

AzBAS is a formal association of Arizona businesses committed to sustainable practices that promote strong communities, successful businesses, a healthy environment, and sound public policy.

We meet four times a year for the primary purpose of holding in-depth dialogues among participants to share, learn from, challenge and test the sustainability practices that are in place — or in developmental phases — in our companies. The overarching goal is for Arizona businesses to step forward together and grow sustainability concepts and activities in Arizona’s diverse communities.

A one page overview of the organization is available here.

Our primary objectives are:

• to build a platform and statewide venues to showcase sustainable businesses practices adopted by AzBAS;
• to collaborate with other organizations committed to promoting sustainability in Arizona;
• to advance sustainability practices in the public policy arena;
• to convey to the State and its communities that Arizona's business leaders support and encourage progressive,  sustainable businesses practices; and
• to serve as a resource — a knowledge base — for others on how to create and adopt sustainable practices in their companies.
