We aim to consider and minimise our significant negative impacts in all three areas and ensure commitment to satisfy applicable legal and other requirements.

Our sustainable event management purpose and values include transparency, stewardship, integrity, and inclusiveness. These values apply to our event management activities, services and our operations.

As an event management organisation we oversee and take into account the event management cycle from conception to planning through to implementation, review and post event activities.
Our current objectives and aims for sustainability include:
COMMUNITY
We aim to work with everyone within the community, by inviting new perspectives from people from different backgrounds and focusing on the needs of our audience, because we are all people. Our vision is not about the growth of our agency, but about the growth of our impact.
EDUCATION
To educate our staff, suppliers, visitor and event clients on sustainable development related matters.
CARBON
To achieve zero carbon emissions [net carbon zero] by 2050 in line with legislation set by countries such as the UK for our activities and services.
ZERO WASTE TO LANDFILL
To ensure that all waste products are upcycled, re-used or recycled wherever possible and to avoid landfill at all costs.
ECONOMIC

through improved efficiencies, that become economically advantageous to clients with a direct impact on local SMEs.
We are fully committed to the protection of the environment and the prevention of pollution across all our events. This policy applies equally to our suppliers and contractors, facilities and service providers and takes into account the needs of end users and our legacy.
We are committed to demonstrating leadership in the field of sustainability and the on-going positive legacy with regards to our sustainability programmes.
