Sustainable Events - Carbon Jargon Busting for Organisers

In this session, we will get to grips with the sustainability jargon relating to organising, hosting and participating in events. We will learn about the scopes of emissions, the difference between net zero and carbon neutral and how emerging legislation is affecting businesses of all shapes and sizes within the industry.

Bring your lunch and join us for an invaluable learning session on sustainability. Do come along with questions! Through our digital event platform, you’ll be able to vote up questions so we can help with some of your most pressing challenges when running events.

Small steps make meaningful change. No single organisation can be fully sustainable, as sustainability is a forever-evolving challenge, but collectively we can build a more sustainable industry.


Pre-registration is required to attend the event.

The joining link will be shared with you prior to the event and you will be able to log in with your usual Evessio account login details. You will also receive communications from Evessio beforehand on how to navigate around the room to get the best value and experience out of the event!
