“Green Drinks NYC is an awesome & welcoming community made up environmentalists from all walks of life: the public & private sector, small towns & big cities, lifelong members & new explorers to the green movement, all coming together to celebrate, network and support each other to affect local & global change. I’ve been attending Green Drinks NYC for the past 3 years and it has helped me grow my small environmentally & socially conscious multimedia production company, Greener Media, by connecting us to some fantastic people and organizations.  Some of these include: GrowNYC, the Green Apple Fest, and the New York Restoration Project. Every time I attend an event I look forward to meeting new people and seeing friendly familiar faces. Margaret and the GreenDrinks NYC team are a special bunch & I look forward to growing with them in the future.” – Jesse Ash of Greener Media:

“Sponsoring Green Drinks was a major turning point in our green campaign. I was really
impressed with Green Drinks attendees’ reaction to our sponsorship. It was a huge, crowded
event and people actually pushed their way through the crowd to come to talk to us and thank
us. Since then, I’ve heard many of Green Drinks attendees have become HSBC customers.”
– Nicole Rousseau, Vice President of Marketing, HSBC

I love Green Drinks! Margaret Lydecker has created the ultimate green networking event in the New York
City. Any business that wants to reach “green connectors” would be wise to join this community, its
changing the world and having fun at the same time.” – David Bach,
# 1 New York Times bestselling author of Go Green, Live Rich and The Automatic Millionaire

“Thank you again for making the book launch of ‘Build Your Own Electric Vehicle’ by Seth Leitman such a
successful and fun event. The whole McGraw-Hill team was very pleased with the attention we received, from the beginning discussions to the planning and execution. We greatly appreciate the marketing and publicity Green Drinks put in place for the event. It’s evident that your email outreach is very effective, as seen from the turn-out. The author was impressed by the attendance, particularly the variety of professionals in attendance, the noticeable interest in his book, and the connections he was able to make.”
– Bettina Faltermeier, Senior Publicity Manager, McGraw-Hill Professional

“Green Drinks has changed my life in New York. It has given me a community
and connectivity to a larger movement that I didn’t know existed here.”

the Sierra Club, and the Green Party, it has also brought people from Comedy Central, Conde Nast,
and the American Turkish Society.”
– Joel Gershon, editorialist, E, The Environmental Magazine

“I run an environmentally-friendly printing company and found more clients through networking at one Green Drinks events than I did in the previous 9 years. My business grew so much
so that I was able to relocate my operations to a larger facility to accommodate all the work. It is
truly extraordinary!”
– Greg Barber, Greg Barber Co,  Environmental Printing
