Our Sustainability Pledge
Together we can create a healthy environment where the hospitality community and the world can flourish.
Questex is committed to creating sustainable, healthy spaces that make a positive impact on the communities we touch. We have joined the Net Zero Carbon Event initiative alongside our vendor partners and colleagues in the commitment to be Net Zero by 2050. To support this goal we have joined the ISLA membership association focused on event sustainability and we will implement their TRACE tool to measure and reduce carbon emissions associated with this year's event.
Our commitment to the Net Zero Carbon Events Initiative for which we strive includes:
