Successful Certification with Sustainable Berlin

Berlin Event has successfully achieved certification from Sustainable Berlin, earning the prestigious “Leader” status—the highest category of recognition, awarded to only a select few companies. Through Sustainable Berlin, visitBerlin places a strong focus on the sustainable development of Berlin’s event industry, aiming to make the German capital one of the most sustainable destinations in the world.

The Sustainable Berlin Initiative

The events industry is known for its high demand on personnel and resources. In light of climate change, taking responsibility and actively working on sustainable solutions is unavoidable. Berlin Event has embraced this challenge by joining the Sustainable Berlin initiative. Together with a strong network of partners, the company is committed to making the capital’s event industry more sustainable and setting pioneering standards.

As part of this initiative, companies in the tourism and event sectors have the opportunity to certify their sustainability standards. This certification not only evaluates the current status but also identifies concrete areas for improvement.

Certification Criteria

The certification process is based on a comprehensive catalog of criteria covering all dimensions of sustainability and aligning with internationally recognized frameworks. As a “Sustainable Partner,” we demonstrated our sustainability performance in four key areas:

1. Governance, Risk & Compliance

Responsible and transparent corporate governance is essential. This includes adherence to legal and industry-specific regulations, as well as a code of conduct that respects the interests of all stakeholders. We adhere to ethical standards that go beyond legal requirements to reinforce our commitment to sustainability.

2. Economy

Sustainability and economic success go hand in hand. We conduct our core business in a socially and environmentally responsible manner. Through transparent cost management and fair salary structures, we contribute to safeguarding the livelihoods of future generations.

3. Environment

Our environmental management encompasses all measures aimed at reducing environmental impact. From minimizing emissions to efficient waste management, we continuously work to shrink our ecological footprint.

4. Society

Sustainability also means taking on societal responsibility. We foster the potential of our employees, advocate for diversity and anti-discrimination, and actively engage in civil society.

Conclusion

Our successful certification proves that we are on the right track. Receiving the “Leader” status in the highest category is an important milestone and a motivation to continue advancing our sustainability efforts.

However, we recognize that sustainability is an ongoing process. Our goal is to continuously improve and develop innovative solutions to become one of the most sustainable event agencies in the long term. With every project, we strive to create not only a unique experience but also a positive impact on our environment and society.
