Creating Impactful Events: Good for Business & Good for the Planet

How ESG Principles Drive Success and Positive Change in the Meetings & Events Industry
In today’s business landscape, sustainability is no longer just a trend – it’s a necessity. The need to balance environmental responsibility with financial success is pressing, especially in the Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions (MICE) industry. As companies face increasing pressure from clients, stakeholders, and consumers to demonstrate their commitment to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles, it’s clear that the future of events is rooted in purpose.

The Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre Launches 5-Year Sustainability Strategy

In a further pledge to operating in an environmentally conscious way, the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre (GCCEC) has launched their 5-year Sustainability Strategy.

The strategy provides a structured and staged approach to GCCEC’s dedication to minimising environmental impact. The organisation is actively contributing to the global effort by aligning to UN Sustainable Development Goals as guiding principles for its initiatives. 

Sustainable Event Management

Even if you are just thinking about how to stage more a sustainable event, it’s important to ‘spread the word’ about your work. Share your initiatives with clients, guests, suppliers, industry partners, colleagues and management. Ask what can be done, find out how you can implement change and keep within the budget.

People will appreciate your efforts to reduce the carbon footprint.
