WHY HOLD A SUSTAINABLE EVENT?

Creating a sustainable event is no longer a choice, it’s basically a necessity. At the Valencia Conference Centre we know that this is the present and future of professional events. But we can only achieve this if companies, organising entities and visitors join forces.

This is why the Valencia Conference Centre has prepared everything you need to transform your event into a sustainable experience.

IF IT’S NOT SUSTAINABLE, IT’S NOT INNOVATION

Our understanding of innovation and using latest technology is that we can only achieve different results by thinking of new ways of working.

ECOFRIENDLY EXPERIENCE

Sustainable events are a unique experience both for visitors and the planet. We have drawn up a series of sustainability criteria to help us ensure that your event is an authentic ECOFRIENDLY EXPERIENCE.

MAKE A GREEN IMPACT WITH YOUR EVENT 

We recognise that our activity has an ecological impact. That is why we will translate CO₂ emissions of your event into a financial contribution, which will support local farmers growing seasonal produce, helping to reduce the event's environmental impact and supporting Valencia's move towards carbon neutrality. 

By joining our initiative and opting into this service, you are not just committing to a greener future, you are also supporting the Valencian countryside and adding both ecological and social value to your event.
