How can we manage ESG, while also continuing to design and deliver face-to-face experiences for global audiences? I ask this, as I’ve seen first-hand that there is still very much an appetite for attending in-person events, due to their invaluable networking opportunities, among others. Give our global client base here at Sledge, these ‘balancing act’ conversations and strategies have become commonplace, as clients increase their focus on doing good. We support them by, for example: 🌍 Highlighting the importance of incorporating ESG into global events. 🔍 Analysing their policies, and developing tailored solutions that reflect their ESG focus areas in the context of global events. 🫶 This may involve giving back to the host destination, through to measuring and tracking carbon emissions. In short, I don’t see global in-person events going away anytime soon, which means it's our responsibility as the event experts to step up, support, and educate, and it’s something we’re passionate about and committed at Sledge. If you’re interested in learning more about global events, in terms of doing good and their future, head on over to the company page, where I reveal some of my thoughts and predictions. #Sledge #globalevents #ESG #purposedriven #eventrends #eventprofs

While ESG is important to us, we also work with clients throughout the globe. So, how do we balance the two – in terms of achieving our own goals in this area and those of our clients, while also responding to attendees' desire to connect with their colleagues and peers from across the world, face-to-face? Leaning on her experience of working abroad of late, as well as skills gained through the ongoing development and application of our internal sustainability strategy, here Project Manager, Sophie Bowtell provides her take on these current happenings, shares her future predictions for global events, and more. #Sledge #globalevents #ESG #purposedriven #eventtrends #eventprofs
