The Future of Sustainability in the Events Industry

The event industry is facing a critical turning point. With nearly one million professionally run events in Australia annually, the environmental impact is significant and increasingly scrutinised. Areas for immediate concern include:

Excessive waste, emissions and resource consumption are no longer accepted as inevitable consequences of the industry.
Organisations’ ESG requirements are rapidly evolving, and stakeholders are demanding change.
The introduction of Mandatory Climate Reporting by the Australian Government has made it imperative for event owners and producers to measure and reassess their impacts
Funders and procurers are also increasingly prioritising organisations that demonstrate a strong commitment to sustainability.

Those without the fundamentals in place will find it difficult to secure support and maintain their competitive edge. This event is designed for industry professionals who understand their impact and are ready to take the next step in making meaningful change to ensure the long-term viability of their organisations.
