Reducing negative environmental impacts is one of Conventa’s most important objectives. When we embarked on our sustainable path in 2009, we quickly realised we had to establish a system of constant improvements to achieve sustainable transformation. Thus, we developed our in-house CONVENTA 7R model.

Since its inception, Conventa has strived to change the behaviour of all regional event organisers. That is why, in 2009 we set the foundations of Conventa’s green concept. We set a goal to complete activities that will result in a 50 percent decrease of our event’s emissions by 2030. We wish to become a 70 per cent carbon-neutral event by 2040.

Reducing the negative environmental effects of the event is one of Conventa’s most valuable goals. Conventa strives to be sustainable in the long run through an established system of constant improvements. We pledge to execute the event sustainably by adhering to our evolved CONVENTA 7R model i.e. Rethink, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Refuse, Recreate, Regenerate.

Reducing negative impacts on the environment is one of Conventa’s most important objectives. That is why this year, the organisers meticolosuly measured the carbon footprint of the entire event. The carbon footprint was calculated by ClimatePartner, based on measurements of emissions generated at the GR - Ljubljana Exhibition and Convention Centre.

We are well-aware that calculating the carbon footprint is only the beginning. The real purpose of this year's calculation was to identify the activities that cause the most greenhouse gas emissions.
