Since 2016 Kuoni Tumlare Congress has played a pivotal role in assisting associations and organizations in enhancing the sustainability of their congresses.
Our approach includes assessing current sustainability practices and in collaboration with our congress partner setting goals, with a focus on objectives such as: reducing carbon footprint, minimizing waste and promoting eco-friendly initiatives. Alongside these, we also work on creating positive social and economic value for everyone involved: from attendees and speakers to sponsors and the broader community.
