For business events and hospitality venues

Carbon evidence for business events and hospitality venues.

For conferences, launches, awards, exhibitions and hosted experiences.

Why this exists

Built for business use.

Business event carbon claims may be seen by clients, sponsors, procurement teams, venue partners or internal sustainability leads, so they need to be supported by clear data, defined boundaries and documented assumptions.

Event Carbon gives the event a clear record, showing what has been included, what data has been used, what assumptions have been made and how the final footprint has been calculated.

The result is a report and certificate that can support confident communication, whether the event is being shared internally, promoted to clients or used as part of a venue or brand sustainability offer.

Business routes

Start with the event context.

Not every business event needs the same level of evidence. The right approach depends on the event, the data available and how the final report or certificate will be used.

Corporate events

For conferences, launches, awards and client events.

For conferences, launches, exhibitions, awards evenings, client dinners, leadership events and team offsites where the event carbon result may be shared with internal teams, sponsors, procurement, ESG teams or external audiences.

Assessment may cover

Attendee and team travel, accommodation, venue energy, catering, production, shipping, event materials, supplier activity and waste.

Often used for

Stakeholder updates, sponsor reports, leadership packs, post-event summaries and responsible public-facing communication.

Typical outputs

Carbon Assessment Report, category breakdown, assumptions record, reduction notes, certificate support and carbon route guidance.

Hospitality & venues

For venues and hospitality settings.

For venues, hotels, restaurants and private-hire spaces that want to offer a documented carbon assessment option for hosted experiences, client proposals or post-event reporting.

Assessment may cover

Venue energy, catering and drinks, guest travel, accommodation, supplier logistics, event materials and waste.

Often used for

Client proposals, venue partnerships, sustainability-led packages, post-event summaries and premium hosted experiences.

Typical outputs

Event footprint summary, scope and assumption notes, certificate support, carbon credit evidence where credits are retired, and wording for venue or client communication.

Travel-led experiences

For hosted itineraries, retreats and multi-location events.

For hosted itineraries, retreats and multi-location programmes where travel, accommodation, catering and logistics form a significant part of the event footprint.

Assessment may cover

Flights, rail, road transfers, hotel nights, hosted catering, local transport, shipping, supplier movement and itinerary assumptions.

Often used for

Event planners, destination wedding planners, travel agents, retreat hosts, incentive travel organisers and hosted itineraries.

Typical outputs

Travel-inclusive footprint summary, scope and assumption notes, certificate support, reduction considerations and carbon credit evidence where credits are retired.

Evidence before claims

For carbon statements that need a clearer record.

Before any supported carbon statement is issued, Event Carbon documents the boundary, data basis, assumptions, carbon route guidance and retirement evidence where carbon credits are used.

Outputs

Built around the report, not just the certificate.

Each business route leads to the same core evidence structure: a clear footprint boundary, documented data basis, carbon assessment report, reduction recommendations, certificate support and carbon route guidance. The package level then determines the depth of evidence and review.

  • Scope and boundary definition
  • Data collection and evidence review
  • Carbon Assessment Report
  • Reduction opportunities
  • Certificate and communication support
  • Carbon route guidance and retirement evidence where selected

Next step

Start with your event details.

Share the event type, location, date, approximate attendee numbers and how the carbon record may be used.

Event Carbon will review the details and confirm the next step. The Event Snapshot, discovery call and proposal are used to agree the assessment route, package level and final outputs before work begins.

Clearer carbon footprints. Better evidence. Statements you can stand behind.
