People and planet pledge
Make a pledge for people and planet
We’re on a mission to support both people and planet by telling stories and seeking action. Whether you’re a booth coordinator or a buyer, we’re asking you to make a pledge to champion social impact and environmental responsibility at IMEX Frankfurt.
COMMITMENT
By each committing to four simple actions, together we can create a show that’s both inclusive and conscious of our impact on the planet.
RECOGNITION
We’ll highlight participating booths with a green booth number and in a listing at the People and Planet Village.
REWARD
Everyone supporting the pledge can collect a ribbon at the IMEX Info Zone in Hall 9 to emphasize their participation.
