IMEX-EIC Innovation in Sustainability Award

Recognizing sustainable impact

The IMEX-EIC Innovation in Sustainability Award celebrates event professionals driving sustainability forward through innovation, collaboration and idea sharing. The award recognizes the event or project owners, and other stakeholders such as the event organizer, venue and other key suppliers, rather than individual achievements by a single supplier for the event.

  • An event or project held between January 1 and December 31 of the previous year
