CN SUSTAINABILITY SUMMIT
ABOUT THE CN SUSTAINABILITY SUMMIT
7 SEPTEMBER 2023 | 15HATFIELDS, LONDON
Over the past few years, sustainability has become a critical global priority due to our increasing awareness of the risks our planet faces without immediate action. Embracing the concept of sustainability is vital, but it's essential to first comprehend its meaning and implications.
Successfully launched in 2022, the CN Sustainability Summit is an ideal opportunity to examine what the events sector is doing well and identify areas for improvement. This event provides a platform to evaluate the industry’s sustainable impact, discuss best practices and generate ideas on how to address the key issues hindering efforts to create a sustainable future for events.
