Discussing how corporate event strategies can advance sustainability commitments and the UN SDGs

In 2022, Positive Impact ran monthly open and confidential conversations to:

• Explore different areas of sustainability for your corporate event strategy, each aligned with UN approaches.

• Understand the current gaps for events to advance corporate sustainability commitments.

• Demonstrate leadership by collaborating with Positive Impact to take action on your corporate event strategy.

We were transparent about challenging corporates in the sessions to take action and asked corporates to join with the intention of wanting to close the gaps in their event strategy.

All conversation fell under Chatham House Rule. See here to understand more.
