Is your organization committed to sustainability but not sure how to apply that to meetings and events? You are not alone! Even companies with a strong sustainability strategy can get lost when trying to achieve greener meetings and events.
What are the biggest environmental strengths and weaknesses of your events program?
Where should you focus your valuable time and resources to achieve the best results?
Our Event Sustainability Audit is designed to give you answers to all these questions and more.
What is a sustainability audit?
Instead of throwing darts or casting blindly, we recommend developing a sustainability strategy based on real data, and that’s where sustainability audits play a key role. To reduce your environmental footprint and make your sustainability strategy effective, you need baseline data. This is where the audit comes in.

“An event sustainability audit is a look inside your event to determine the most powerful way to practice sustainability for either a specific event or an entire meetings and events program.”
What are the benefits?
Your Sustainability Audit provides you with a picture of where you stand compared to industry benchmarks to figure out where you should aim for improvement. It will highlight the biggest ways in which your event is impacting the environment and provide recommendations based on the data and best practice to help you focus your efforts and get the most return for your investment into sustainability.
The Meetings & Events Sustainability Audit is designed to help you save time so that you can quickly and easily understand where your company stands with regards to best practices in key areas including energy use, waste production and social impact.
How does it work?
Water use, energy use, waste production and more are all important parts of a sustainability audit. The key objective is to gain real data about how you are operating and where your biggest opportunities for improvement is. Guest numbers, energy usage, air miles, food waste. All this data should be collected. And the better the data, the better your policy can be.
Huddle makes it easy!
At Huddle, our goal is to make corporate events carbon neutral, and Sustainability Audits are an important part of that process. Our audits are designed to be quick and easy for our clients and have four clear stages:
Data Collection. Complete our quick online checklist to determine where you currently stand with sustainability for your event or program of events and establish a baseline measurement.
Reduction methods. Review the data and set priorities for action and specific strategies for each focus area. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) assist in reporting and communicating your progress to key stakeholders including employees, shareholders and customers. Our team will walk you through this process.
Employee Ownership. Create engagement, ownership and accountability among employees and suppliers, so that strategies are incorporated directly into day-to-day processes.
Reporting. Use your user-friendly reporting dashboard to give regular updates on the target progress to both internal and external stakeholders. This differentiates the company from the competition, communicates progress, and provides data for decision-making.
