How can I present myself as a sustainable provider?

In the MICE Portal you can show how sustainable you are and present this added value with a variety of options.

1. What can you do?

2. Selet hotel type "Biohotel/Ecohotel"

3.Inform about renewable energy supply

4.Specify CO2 value per overnight stay and buliding standart

5.Select and upload environmental certificate

6.Select search term "green meeting"

The voluntary decision of many companies to prepare a sustainability report at the end of a fiscal year has given the topic of sustainability a new boost. As is the demand from departments for measurable actions on this. 

Your interested parties on the MICE Portal therefore want to leave as small a CO2 footprint as possible with their events and are specifically looking for suppliers who guarantee low CO2 emissions. 

MICE Portal already shows this carbon footprint of the conference participants in the offer comparison and also in the booking report of the customers. The calculation of a possible compensation takes place at the push of a button and thus supports an identifiable, sustainable purchasing policy. 

We show you what you can do to ensure that your product is calculated with the lowest possible CO2 value and how you can be found more quickly by potential customers as a sustainable  supplier.

1. What can you do?

  • You can not only upload environmental certificates in your account, but also, for example, provide information about the use of renewable energies and your energy certificate, thus increasing your reach and the attractiveness of your database entry. 
  • No problem for you? Perfect! As a reward, you can crown your product with the search term "Green Meeting". If a user now uses this search term, your product will be displayed in the search results! 

Good to know: In both the Basic and MICE Professional account, you can upload certificates and select search terms that match your product. But if you have chosen a MICE Professional Account or MICE Marketing, you can promote your sustainability even better with MICE Moments and the appropriate #hashtags and combine #sustainable with #digital, for example!
