Sustainability at FHA
Sustainability Alliance
In early 2022, a pivotal meeting between Informa Markets and Singapore Tourism Board (STB) transpired during a prestigious UFI event. It was during this encounter that a harmonious alignment was forged, uniting their shared visions for revolutionising the Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions (MICE) industry. The strategic objective that emerged from this collaboration was the transformation of Singapore into a Sustainable MICE Hub, dovetailing with Informa’s overarching FasterForward initiative.
In pursuit of these ambitious goals, a triumvirate of paramount objectives was meticulously delineated, focusing on Informa’s largest event in the region, Food & Hospitality Asia (FHA), as a kickstart. These include:
- The conversion of FHA into a Zero Waste Event.
- The conversion of FHA into a Carbon Neutral Event of international distinction.
- The delivery of an enduring Legacy of Knowledge, catalysing the swift assimilation of sustainable event practices throughout the region.
