What's the key to hosting meetings that tread lighter on the planet? Planning from the very beginning, and considering how sustainable practices can be woven throughout the entire experience, from ideation through to delivery. This spans host venues, materials, event formats and more, and here we share three practices our teams adopt when approaching all of the events they plan and deliver. #SWMPartners #sustainability #sustainableevents #netzeroevents #eventplanning #medicalmeetings

The Live Event industry is influenced by major long term trends. Next to the desire to find „Purpose“ in an experience driven society and the „Digitalization“ that disrupts many ways we are used to do business it is „Sustainability“ that will have a fundamental impact on how we deliver and consume live events in the future. We at d&b call that the three revolutions and regarding Sustainability I am very proud about another innovation we bring to market. With „Sustain Symphony“ we address the desire to plan, organize and perform live events in an environmental friendly and socially acceptable way. Check it out and join us to make the world sound and look better! More art, less noise! #SustainSymphony #Purpose # Digitalization # Sustainability #More art, less noise

Today, we stand with industry leaders from around the world on Global Meetings Industry Day—a day that serves to highlight the importance of the meetings, incentives, conferences, and exhibitions (MICE) industry. Every meeting, every shared experience, underscores the impact that the MICE industry has on businesses, economies, and communities. The relationships forged give us all the more reason to inspire others, so we can continue to build this future together. At APG, we consider it paramount to embody the values of collaboration and continuous improvement. Let us all strive not only to overcome today's challenges but also to work together in laying the groundwork for tomorrow's success. #GlobalMeetingsIndustryDay #apgpoweredevents #avprofs #eventprofs

Today is Global Meetings Industry Day, a day to recognise the power and importance of events and meetings for people, businesses and communities.   As one of Europe’s largest fully integrated meeting places with 2 million visitors a year, we at Svenska Mässan Gothia Towers see every day how #MeetingsMatters. People meeting and talking is the way to understanding and trust – this is essential for a positive future development of our society.   We are proud to facilitate this, not least through our:   🏨 Capacity – All under one roof, we have a congress hall that can hold 1,500 delegates; 41,000 square metres of exhibition and congress space; 1,200 hotel rooms; 60 meeting rooms; 5 restaurant and bars; and a two-storey spa.   🌍 Sustainability work – Since 2015, we are certified according to ISO 20121 for sustainable events. We have signed the Net Zero Carbon Events Pledge, committing to regularly review and update our roadmap towards #netzero emissions in 2050 (stay tuned for more info on this.) With ambitious goals and defined focus areas, we work towards our strategic vision of being a meeting place that enables real change.   🦺 Safety efforts – For many years, we have organised and hosted large meetings and events that require the highest level of security, such as EU summits and political party congresses. We take great pride in our strong reputation in this area, and work hard to maintain it by offering security solutions tailored to unique needs.   #GMID2024 #NetZeroCarbonEvents #businessevents #meetings #exhibitions #EventProfs JMIC Joint Meetings Industry Council PCMA

Stockholm is a city set up for meetings. We’ve got the infrastructure, the high-speed internet and an atmosphere of innovation. ⚡️Last week we attended IMEX in Frankfurt, where the global meetings, events and incentive travel industry comes together annually for the largest trade show of its kind in Europé. Thank you for all the great talks and meet-ups there! 4 reasons why you should choose Stockholm for your next meeting 👇     ✔️ A place for every taste: In Stockholm you’ll find everything from classic conference hotels to quirky venues for outside-the-box thinkers. With a wide range of activities suitable for groups both indoors and outdoors, the region is an all-year-round destination. ✔️ A city of science and innovation: Stockholm is home to a vibrant life sciences industry, fast-growing CleanTech scene and globally-renowned tech and creative ecosystem. Congregate in one of the world’s most digital, knowledge-intensive regions and inspire brilliance. ✔️ A smart well-connected capital: Discover everything you need to get the job done. With a wide selection of conference venues and some 37,000 hotel rooms equipped with high-speed WiFi, Stockholm is built for meetings of up to 30,000 delegates at a time. ✔️ Efficiency meets excellence: Things here run like clockwork, thanks to our practicality, efficiency and a Scandinavian attention to detail. A non-hierarchical culture and speedy decision-making makes meeting and congress planning a breeze.   #IMEX24 #IMEX #Stockholm

I hear it time and time again - in the UK, in Germany, anywhere - that communicators' biggest gripe is that the leaders of their company don't understand the value of communication (and often underfund it as a consequence). As one senior corporate communicator (large international recruitment agency) I recently met said in an exasperated voice: "How do we educate our C-Suite so they recognise the value of what we do?" So, the onus is on communicators FIRST to communicate the value of communication to their leaders, BEFORE embarking on the next big campaign. It's a tall order. But it can be done. And Dale Parmenter DRPG has some great advice. #corporatecommunication #communicationsstrategy #ROI #events #liveexperience #IMEX #IMEXLasVegas
