Sustainable Innovation In Sport 2017
This event follows a highly successful first edition of Sustainable Innovation in Sport in 2015 which was launched during the historic COP21 in Paris, and is the culmination of ongoing work with sports groups driving for sustainability to be an integral part of overall strategy.
This two day meeting will deep dive into how the wider industry can impact the reduction of carbon emissions of large scale sports by ensuring sustainable operations, as well as how we can engage and educate consumers and fans more broadly to encourage sustainable behaviour change.
We must act and we must act together internationally. Sport must sustain its model, and this involves the organization of major sporting events durable and sustainable…Sport embraces he entire planet, we have a duty to make it sustainable if we want the world to be.
- Thierry Braillard, Secretary of State for Sport at Sustainable Innovation in Sport 2015
