Sustainability
The Grand Plan
At Olympia, sustainability has always sat at the heart of what we do. In 2017, a team of passionate people from across our events company came together to form our sustainability working group. We call it The Grand Plan.
Our Grand Plan is not just about ‘green’ initiatives. Its ultimate goal is to leave a positive impact through all that we do. This includes our work with the The Olympia Charitable Trust in the local community.
Community
Act as a hub for our local community with charity partnerships, by employing local people, and by adding value to our local area.
Environment
Have a positive net impact on the environment and encourage our customers and partners to deliver sustainable events. In 2021 Olympia Events committed to the Net Zero Carbon Events pledge.
Collaboration
Engage, educate, and empower our staff, clients, and exhibitors. We will collaborate to drive sustainability across the event industry and inspire others to achieve best practice.
