Sustainability at ConfX

How we plan and run events with less waste, a lighter travel footprint and lasting value for the communities we bring together.

Our approach

Responsible events, by design

Sustainability is part of how we plan every event, from the first venue shortlist to the last session recording.

We focus on the decisions that make the most difference for an events business: where we meet, how people travel, what we produce and what happens to the knowledge shared in the room.

We review these practices after each event and share what we learn with our venues, suppliers, and partners.

In practice

Where we focus

Venues

We favour central venues with good public transport links and established environmental practices, including energy management, waste separation and recycling.

Travel

Our summits take place in major business hubs that most attendees can reach directly, and we encourage rail and public transport wherever routes allow.

Materials

Agendas, speaker information and event guides are digital. Signage and branding are designed to be reused across editions.

CateringWe work with venues on seasonal menus, plant-based options, accurate numbers to limit food waste, and water stations in place of single-use bottles.
SuppliersWe ask venues and suppliers about their environmental commitments and work with local suppliers in each host city.
Knowledge that travelsSessions are published as Knowledge Sessions and findings appear in InsightX, extending the value of each event to people who could not attend in person.
People and community

Events that are open and respectful

Sustainable events are also inclusive ones. We choose accessible venues, publish a Code of Conduct for every event and welcome participants from diverse backgrounds.

Our research draws on leaders across industries, and we share it openly through InsightX.

Partners and venues

Lower-impact participation

We work with sponsors, exhibitors and venues who want to reduce the footprint of their presence at our events.

  • Digital lead capture in place of printed collateral
  • Reusable stands and branding
