AN INVITATION TO JOIN

IMEX in association with Green Global Village and supported by Green Meetings Industry Council and the MCI Group are launching a new initiative at IMEX 2007 (17-19 April 2007) – an online global portal for green suppliers for the MICE industry – the green suppliers network.

Companies are beginning to understand their environmental responsibilities and respond constructively. Environmental practices are becoming a key factor when deciding on venue, catering, suppliers etc.

With your help. we can create the most comprehensive eco-database for the MICE industry. The aim is to help meeting planners and event organizers find what they are looking for in a “one-stop shop” virtual marketplace.

Going green can also show economic benefits and can have significant and positive impacts on the community in which meeting suppliers and planners operate by:

• Lowering costs
• Improving product quality
• Retaining existing customers
• Motivating employees
• Commitment to the community
• Preserving eco-systems
