SUSTAINABILITY
- We aim for all of our events to be run in an environmentally and socially responsible way whilst seeking to inspire sustainable development in our markets.
- We do this not only because more than 80% of our attendees tell us that they care that our events are run in a responsible manner, but because it is the right thing to do for our customers, colleagues, and the communities we serve.
- We would like to encourage you to join our sustainability efforts by completing the 10 point checklist enclosed in this document.
- By working together, we can make the event more memorable, meet our audience’s expectations and reduce wasted time, resources, and costs.
