Conventa is dedicated to promoting sustainability and innovation in the meetings industry. This year, the organisers rolled out Planet Positive Event, a project poised to revolutionise how events measure their carbon footprint and perceive sustainability.
Conventa is a leading regional trade show for New Europe, connecting 100+ exhibitors from 16 countries and 160+ hosted buyers from all around the Europe and beyond. Next Conventa will be held from 18 -20 February 2025 in Ljubljana, Slovenia.
Every year, attendees have the unique opportunity to engage in one-on-one meetings where they can discuss business matters in depth. These sessions allow participants to delve into professional topics while getting to know each other personally.
One of Conventa’s standout sustainability initiatives is its use of locally sourced Slovenian wood for all event stands, a tradition upheld year after year. By utilising ecological materials from the region, Conventa minimises its carbon footprint and supports local communities, encapsulating the spirit of sustainable practices. The organisers also encourage sustainability by inviting guests to bring their bottles back, which are then recycled. Additionally, the event features a gastronomic offering with a predominantly vegetarian diet, showcasing localand sustainable cuisine, adding to the overall enjoyment of the event.
A revolution for sustainable events with Planet Positive Event
Planet Positive Event is an all-in-one sustainability rating and certification tool that was developed
by event organisers for event organisers. The entire methodology was tested at Conventa.
