The event has a highly limited number of seats (with early bird tickets only available until May) and will take place on September 2-4 in Toiano (Tuscany, Italy), in the sustainable setting of Villa Lena, a villa nestled between Pisa and Florence, and praised by VOGUE as a "dream vacation destination for barefoot luxury.”

It offers three full days of immersive networking with C-level executives from S&P 500 companies and current and former state ministers, all within the intimate setting of a private Tuscan palazzo. 
Additionally, Terra Tuscany addresses the 5 most common pain points for sustainability leaders: 

• Compliance & Regulations: Help organizations that are struggling with trying to satisfy regulations and evolving internal processes to keep up with regulation
• Stakeholder Involvement: Gauging stakeholder expectations such as helping customers see the value in sustainable products, coordinating with peers, streamlining collaboration across the value chain, ensuring quality and accuracy of data about distribution partners, supply chain management, employee engagement, and risk management in community involvement
• Prioritizing Sustainability Efforts: Determining which sustainability targets and initiatives should receive the most attention in the face of limited funding and workforce availability
• Creating Incentive Systems: Who is responsible for what in terms of accountability, and how is your organization critical for implementing those systems?
• Decision-Making Power: How to get execution power for implementing sustainable practices internally, and how effectively delegating and managing stakeholders converts sustainability goals into business strategy and financial impact
