The PSI Product Stewardship
Forum attracts the top government, industry, and environmental leaders from
around the country in the field of product stewardship. It will be one of
the best conferences that you attend. Here are a few things that past
attendees have said about our forums:
- Excellent
agenda. So many diverse perspectives led to tremendous ideas.
- The PSI
Forum was without a doubt the best environmental conference that I
have attended in several years.
- Never seen
a workshop with this quality of participant information and topics.

What is the PSI Forum?
The PSI Forum is a national conference hosted annually by the
Product Stewardship Institute that provides an energetic environment for
face-to-face discussion of current and emerging product stewardship issues,
with extensive networking opportunities. Speakers represent the full
stakeholder perspective – manufacturers, retailers, local, state, and
federal governments, and environmental advocacy interests. The Forum
provides an overarching perspective on the state of product stewardship
today, as well as information about innovative programs and processes
currently underway in the U.S. and abroad. Through interactive sessions,
Forum participants discuss challenges and strategies for achieving a future
in which products are responsibly manufactured, used, and managed after
use.
We look forward to seeing you in Boston this June!
