From the Melbourne Convention & Exhibition Centre website:
The Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre (MCEC), together with two of the world’s most renowned eco-friendly convention centres: the Arena and Convention Centre Liverpool and the Cape Town International Convention Centre, have joined forces to create a Global Green Alliance.
This initiative was a direct result of relationships forged at the recent ICCA Congress in Florence with the alliance aiming to promote industry best-practice for hosting sustainable events.
Anne Jamieson, Director of Sales at the MCEC said: ‘The launch of this new partnership marks an exciting new era for the meetings and events sector as we collaborate in developing new eco-friendly venue design features and packaged services. We anticipate that event organisers will benefit from a significantly enhanced sustainable offer and the industry as a whole will see best-practice improved across the board.’
The alliance will focus on developing its combined offer and joint international marketing activities. Over the coming months, the alliance will announce a range of service offerings and other initiatives to further develop industry best practice and enable clients to gain maximum value from holding sustainable events.
