In a world where sustainability is a growing priority, event organizers are seeking efficient ways to reduce their environmental impact. In2event offers tools to help minimize waste, conserve resources, and lower carbon footprints. Here’s how our platform supports event sustainability to make a difference in every stage of event planning.
Smart catering with meal requests
Food waste is a major environmental issue, and events often contribute to the problem. In2event’s meal request feature allows both attendees and suppliers to specify meal needs, including quantity and dietary preferences like vegetarian or vegan. This simple step empowers organizers to accurately plan portions, reducing leftover food and minimizing waste.
- Plan with precision: Only prepare the exact number of meals requested.
- Track and adjust: After the event, In2event’s tracking feature shows how many meals were actually picked up, revealing patterns to help you reduce waste in future events.
- Reduce meat impact: Caterers can prepare plant-based meals upon request, helping to reduce the environmental footprint of food production.
Reducing food waste cuts costs and lowers greenhouse gas emissions associated with food production and disposal. Every meal saved is a step toward a greener event and a greener world.
Efficient energy use with power planning
With In2event’s power planning feature, organizers can be strategic about energy use. By gathering power requests from each supplier, organizers can calculate total energy needs, plan the number of generators required, and allocate power effectively throughout the event.
- Assess specific needs: Suppliers can specify exactly how much power they need and what it’s for.
- Optimize generator placement: Ensure generators are only placed where necessary, reducing excess energy use and avoiding power waste.
Tracking and reducing travel impact
Events can also make a difference by encouraging sustainable transportation choices. In2event’s mobility tracking feature allows organizers to collect travel data, providing insights into the distance attendees travel and their modes of transportation—whether bus, train, car, or carpool.
- Calculate your event’s travel footprint: Know how many kilometers attendees traveled to and from your event.
- Promote greener travel options: This data can inform decisions to offer shuttle services, encourage carpooling, or promote public transit.
Digital tickets
Paper tickets add to waste and the carbon footprint of events, but In2event’s digital ticketing feature provides a seamless alternative. This eco-friendly approach cuts down on paper waste and provides a smoother check-in experience.
- Streamlined check-ins: Digital tickets are easily scannable, reducing wait times and enhancing the attendee experience.
- Reduced waste: Going digital means no paper tickets to print, distribute, or dispose of.
