Green Credentials
With no common standard either in the UK or internationally for evaluating event suppliers, Eventia has started to develop a list of national and international green credentials to highlight the different accreditations, associations, etc. that are in different countries or regions. Whilst not exhaustive this list can be used as a guide to understanding different markets green credentials and how they rate them.
