Sustainability Consultancy, From Now who, partners with brands such as LinkedIn, Google and Rapid7, have launched the Sustainable Events Community on a mission to make the events industry more sustainable.
Co-Founder Saskya Liney stated, “The typical event attendee produces 1.89 Kg of waste per day, 85% of which can be landfill, depending on where and what type of event it is. And a recent report by the Global Business Travel Association (GBTA) and Cvent indicates that although many people cite sustainability as a priority, our industry still isn’t taking solid action. Many of us want to do more but may not know how to – and small differences can make a big impact. With that in mind, we’ve launched The Sustainable Events Community. A platform where you can get access to all the latest venues, suppliers, news, tips and sustainability insights shaping the future of events”.
With more and more people getting behind the sustainability movement, there are so many great tools, venues and suppliers popping up that it can be difficult to keep up.
The Sustainable Events Community is a free-to-join new hub where all are welcome to join the conversation, share their experiences and keep us all pulling in the right direction!
