Monaco, host city of SPORTEL Monaco convention, is a city committed to the environment. The Principality is actively involved in maintaining the quality of life of its inhabitants by implementing a policy in favour of sustainable development.
H.S.H Prince Albert II of Monaco, Honorary President of SPORTEL, is internationally recognised as a leading defender of the environment.
The organisation Monaco Mediax, in charge of the SPORTEL, joined the Principality's National Energy Transition Pact on 14 November 2019, committing itself alongside the Principality to reduce its environmental impact.
In order to pursue along the same lines, SPORTEL makes it a point of honour to promote and support environmental commitment among its audience and decided to implement various measures by combining forces of the organising team, service providers, partners, guests, and everyone who is involved within SPORTEL Monaco.
Elimination of plastic: No plastic water bottles, we favour glass bottles or cardboard bricks onsite
Drastically reduce paper: No more printed guide or SPORTEL news
Recycled carpet: We use recycled carpet on our stands
Recycling bins: installed throughout the convention
No food waste: We are very careful about the amount of food ordered to avoid food waste
Environmentally engaged hotels: SPORTEL works exclusively with hotels which implement various actions for the planet
Eco-friendly partners: We source local suppliers for catering, AV, furniture, and plants locally (French Riviera). The proximity between our event and partners avoids carbon dioxide emissions during transportation. We exclusively work with suppliers who are very respectful and vigilant about the environment
New! We strongly encourage our participants to opt for a more ecological transport to transfer from the airport to the Principality. Here!
SPORTEL takes place at the Grimaldi Forum, which has ISO 14001:2015 certification. The Grimaldi Forum is very respectful towards the environment, through its strong commitment to reducing the environmental impact of its events-based activities.
As such, it proposes a range of concrete actions related directly to the SPORTEL:
The Monegasque government has set up several actions in the city to protect the environment. The measures occur in different domains and raise awareness among its population.
