Welcome to the ewC – an event that takes responsibility

Sustainability is our guiding principle: we are constantly working to make our events more resource-efficient, collaborating with value-oriented partners and creating a responsible experience for everyone. For us, sustainability is not a trend, but an ongoing process that we pursue consistently, continuously and constructively. We firmly believe that shared responsibility, transparency and respectful use of resources are the keys to successful events. Let's tackle this issue together—together we can create sustainable experiences that benefit people, the environment, and the economy.

Sustainability is embedded in planning and delivery, with a commitment to progress at every event.

Why sustainability is so important to us: We are committed to minimizing resource consumption and waste, protecting environmental and social aspects along the value chain, and achieving long-lasting effects for exhibitors, visitors, and the industry.

Sustainability at NürnbergMesse as Venue of the ewC

NürnbergMesse operates energy-efficient trade fair and exhibition spaces using modern building technology. It uses renewable energies and intelligent building control systems to reduce energy consumption. In terms of resource conservation, emphasis is placed on waste separation, recycling rates, and minimizing single-use materials. By working closely with regional partners and suppliers, efforts are made to shorten transport routes. Accessibility and inclusive event design enable equal participation for all attendees. Finally, transparent sustainability reports and regular audits ensure continuous improvement.
