Last October, the "Sustainability Conference: Recovery from the ESG Perspective" took place at the Reina Sofia Museum in Madrid. This event was promoted by Red Eléctrica de España and produced by SOMOSFIRM, an agency certified as Premium in sustainability by Eventsost.
The entire event production included a custom-made sustainability plan designed on the EventsostKEY digital platform, and its implementation was audited to certify compliance with the "Sustainable Event" certification scheme. SOMOSFIRM considered this from the design to the dismantling of the event.
The main sustainable practices deployed by SOMOSFIRM during the organization of the conference included efficient use of electricity to minimize, among other things, greenhouse gas emissions caused by the event. To achieve this, electricity use was minimized by using low-consumption lighting and taking advantage of natural light in catering areas. Subsequently, for the unavoidable carbon emissions, the event's carbon footprint was estimated and offset.
Additionally, selecting a central location allowed attendees to avoid car travel and easily access the venue by public transportation or on foot, significantly reducing the carbon footprint.
In terms of production, we highlight the rational use of scenographic materials, with particular attention to using more ecological materials such as PVC-free ecological banners.
