Climate Action & Energy Transition
Our goal is to operate with low emissions and avoid harmful environmental impacts. To achieve this, we are developing a climate action strategy and working on transitioning our energy supply to renewable sources. Key priorities include sustainable mobility options and reducing our overall environmental footprint.

Circular Events
We are committed to increasing resource efficiency and making our supply chains more sustainable. Modern, eco-friendly booth construction concepts and a circular waste management approach play a central role. ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) criteria are gradually being integrated into our procurement processes to promote sustainability throughout the entire value chain.

Regional & Local Responsibility
By awarding contracts to regional service providers, we strengthen the local economy and support sustainable urban development. Our social engagement highlights our role as a responsible corporate citizen, especially through support in times of crisis.

Innovation & Digitalization
We leverage digital tools to use resources more efficiently and reach our environmental goals. AI-based approaches help us identify and tap into potential across the company. At the same time, we are developing digital platforms that promote sustainable products and solutions.

Future-Oriented Employer
We are committed to an inclusive work environment and actively promote diversity and equal opportunities. Through a strong employer branding strategy and a DEI (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion) concept, we aim to build an attractive, forward-thinking work culture.

Responsible Governance & Processes
Quality, efficiency, and sustainable corporate management are central to everything we do. Standardizing and systematizing processes, along with an enhanced Code of Conduct, ensure responsible business practices. Strong governance and clear compliance rules support our path toward sustainable growth.
