Sustainability
Sustainability Our Guiding Principle
At the CGF Global Summit, sustainability is more than a talking point—it is at the foundation of what we believe and do. In the consumer goods sector, our focus is on driving change towards a more sustainable and accountable future.
Our events are more than networking opportunities; they are platforms for embodying our values and striving for excellence.
Sustainability is a shared mission for us. It involves navigating complex challenges with a clear commitment to making a positive impact.
The Summit serves as both a reflection of our achievements and a forum for encouraging collaboration, sharing insights, and fostering innovation.
Our goal is clear: to push the boundaries of sustainability further
We have made strides in reducing our environmental footprint and promoting social equity, yet we know there is much more to do. With a realistic yet ambitious strategy, we are inviting collaboration to achieve meaningful progress.
Our commitment is reflected in our actions:
We choose event locations and partners that align with our sustainability objectives and boast credentials such as TripAdvisor GreenLeaders Certification.
Employing a comprehensive sustainability checklist that guides as far as possible and practical, our event planning and execution, towards a holistic approach to environmental and social responsibility.
Encouraging group travel and the use of recyclable materials to minimise our environmental impact, alongside initiatives like a linen and towel reuse program, and donation of used amenities in rooms to local shelters.
Engaging local NGOs and community groups in the planning process, to ensure the economic and social benefits to local communities are prioritised, such as working with Rescue Leftover Cuisine to manage food surplus.
Promoting sustainable practices among our attendees, speakers, partners, and vendors.
