The Pet Sustainability Coalition (PSC) will host Impact Unleashed 2026, its flagship sustainability leadership event, November 9-11 in Boulder, Colorado.
The event is capped at 150 attendees, with suppliers limited to no more than 20% of participants. Programming will cover topics including climate change, packaging, extended producer responsibility, regenerative agriculture, sustainable ingredients and cost reduction.
Keynote speakers include Kevin Rabinovitch, vice president of global sustainability at Mars; Kate Williams, CEO of 1% for the Planet; Deanna Bratter, chief sustainability officer at Crocs; and Andrew Mayock, former chief sustainability officer for the U.S. government.
Additional programming includes curated networking sessions organized by topic, a gala dinner and outdoor activities. The event will also feature the Worldwide Pet Sustainability Awards, recognizing leadership and innovation across the pet industry.
"What makes this event different is that it brings the PSC ecosystem to life," said Jim Lamancusa, CEO of PSC. "This event is different. When you bring together a community of passionate leaders committed to solving the same challenges, something powerful happens. Conversations deepen, trust builds, and progress accelerates."
