TOP TIPS FOR BEING
GREEN IN A GLOBAL
WORLD
With such a global focus on the importance of sustainability, what could you do to make your events
and meetings more sustainable? Here, Fabrizio Della Pace, chief operating officer at Rentuu, shares
his best practice advice on how to ensure events are delivered sustainably.
STATE OF AFFAIRS
This August, the meetings and events industry
was invited to take part in a survey that will
shape an action plan on how the global events
industry could achieve the United Nations
Sustainable Development Goals. In 2015, 193
member states vowed to address 17 Sustainable
Development Goals, with the aim of making a
difference to climate change, infrastructure and
economic growth by 2030.
ANALYSE YOUR SUPPLY CHAIN
Communicating your sustainability goals
through your tender process is a great way to
demonstrate corporate social responsibility
(CSR) and your commitment to the environment.
What’s more, you could analyse your entire
supply chain to ensure they complement your
own green ideals.

SUPPLIERS ARE KEY
Finding the right suppliers is key to your success; the
supply chain plays an essential role in the delivery
of your event. Not only because of the skill and
knowledge that suppliers possess; you must consider
the impact of transportation and the carbon
footprint of travel miles.
WORK TOGETHER
It’s imperative to engage your supply chain
early, involve suppliers in the planning process
and encourage your chosen suppliers to work
together. For example, have you considered
asking suppliers via your request for proposals
(RFP) documentation to demonstrate how they
work with other trusted contractors?
