Ogden Outdoor Adventure Show 230 - GOAL ZERO
Ogden Outdoor Adventure Show 230 features a trip south to Bluffdale, Utah, home of one of our favorite Utah grown companies, GOAL ZERO.
Founded on three pillars: Zero Apathy (We Care), Zero Boundaries (We Explore), and Zero Regrets (We Risk), GOAL ZERO is leading the portable solar industry inspiring all of us to live the Solar Life.
James Atkin, Director of Brand Marketing and Hank Howell, Senior Industrial Designer for GOAL ZERO, sat down with us in the Tan Van for an in-depth chat about the company's inauspicious beginning, humanitarian roots, quality ambassadors, product and innovation, and their new marketing campaign #officeanywhere
