Sustainability at EECE Expo | A Commitment to the Future

Sustainability

Our Commitment

At EECE Expo, we believe that events can also be a catalyst for positive change.

For this reason, we integrate sustainability into the planning, operation, and development of the event through the FasterForward program. Based on its three pillars —Faster to Zero, Sustainability Inside e Impact Multiplier— we promote actions that help reduce our environmental footprint while encouraging exhibitors, visitors, and partners to adopt more sustainable practices.
