With climate disasters becoming increasingly severe, the urgency for sustainability is clear. And while the events industry has taken steps through the Net Zero Carbon Events (NZCE) initiative to address its significant carbon footprint, IFES International Federation of Exhibition and Event Services VP and Holtmann+ CEO Jorg Zeissig believes we’ve done enough talking – it’s time to start implementing. Zeissig calls on all #MICEindustry players to move beyond discussions and start taking real, actionable steps toward sustainability. “We want to get rid of disposable stands, but the industry believes the sustainable alternative kills flexibility, is more expensive and is uglier. It’s not true – but it's up to us to change that narrative, which is what initiatives like Better Stands aim to do,” he says. He emphasises that global impact requires industry-wide standards and collaboration. Now is the time to turn our commitment into concrete action.

Why sustainability matters in the event services industry? The environmental impact of events can be enormous, with large crowds frequently consuming a large amount of energy, water, and other resources. Events can also generate a significant amount of waste, such as food waste, paper products, and other materials that end up in landfills. It is critical for event services businesses to take steps to reduce their environmental impact, both for the sake of the planet and for the industry’s long-term viability. Event services businesses can help protect the environment and demonstrate their commitment to social and environmental responsibility by implementing sustainable practices and reducing their carbon footprint. Furthermore, reducing the environmental impact of events can have tangible benefits for businesses, such as cost savings and improved reputation. Events and Conferences can come with a hefty environmental footprint. Carbon offsets offer one way to green your event and make it more sustainable. What is Carbon Offsets?
