Green event policies & challenges to be highlighted by event decision-makers | The Planner

We all want more event business irrespective of the type of venue, suppliers or services provided to an ever-growing corporate, association and government market.

Because the world is becoming more aware and indeed concerned with environmental destruction – organisations have implemented greening policies and procedures in their businesses through their procurement departments and therefore the event managers.

Events in particular have a major and immediate impact on the environment whether it is 20 attendees at 100 event or 2000 attendees at 1 event.  The devastation can be significant.

It is overdue for the events industry in all it’s sectors to discover what the decision-makers are requiring if their organisation contracts event venues, suppliers or services.

The 2016 Event Greening Forum themed:  ‘Go Green! It’s Good for Business’ will provide participants with in-depth information on what potential clients will require in a green policy as well as the challenges faced by organisations within various sectors of the events industry.

At the same conference, participants will be provided with simple green standards that each sector should adhere to as well as attendees shall be provided with the opportunity to give their input on the Minimum Standards for Sustainable Events.  Both the well-informed presenters, as well as the take-away value will be of a very high quality.

Book the date of Thursday 21st July at  Hackle Brooke Centre.
