Championing sustainability at SuperReturn Private Wealth
At SuperReturn we are committed to running events which are both environmentally sustainable and socially responsible. From dedicated debates on the agenda, to radical changes in the way we build our exhibition - here is a breakdown of how we are embedding sustainability in everything we do.
Sustainability Initiatives
We are proud to deliver you a sustainable event by launching the initiatives outlined below.
Digital Event Guide
Our event guide will be delivered in a 100% digital format this year, significantly reducing our usage of paper products during the live experience.
We'll have QR codes onsite that attendees can easily scan with their smartphone to pull up the agenda on their mobile devices.
Eliminate Other Printed Materials
No physical mail promotional material referring to the conference
Any signage we do use is printed on recyclable material
Food and Beverage
Significant efforts are made to reduce food waste by anticipating precise delegate numbers
Menus are seasonal and regional, resulting in reduction of meat overall
Chinaware and cutlery are offered whenever possible. In cases where disposables are necessary, we have switched to biodegradable materials (e.g. coffee cups)
Lanyards and Name Badges
Lanyards selected are made from recycled PET plastic which can then be recycled again at the end of the event
Lanyards are ensured to be collected and fully recycled post-event.
Our "Better Stand" Program
Per our commitment to the evolution of the exhibition industry, we aim to ensure that we are delivering the best possible experience for our customers.
We believe that by moving away from the use of disposable exhibition booths, we will improve the ease, quality, safety, and sustainability of the exhibitor experience at our events.
We encourage our exhibitors to minimize handouts by utilizing our digital download QR code technology at their booths.
Power
- We will ensure all added lighting is energy efficient
- Event venue utilizes all energy star certified AV equipment

- Creating a positive impact on our host cities and measuring our impacts
Environmental responsibility
SuperReturn events will be run in an increasingly environmentally responsible manner, focusing on:
- Reducing carbon emissions
- Creating less waste and discouraging giveaways from exhibitor stands and media partners
- Considering sustainability credentials for every item sourced for the event
Sustainable development
Our aim is for SuperReturn events to promote long-term sustainable development - in the way that we run the event but also in how it's implemented in the market as a whole. We are committing to:
- Using our content to support the sustainability of the private capital market
- Developing close partnerships with associations and giving them a platform to promote their organisations
- Facilitating discussions on pertinent topics including diversity & inclusion, ESG, sustainability, impact & more...
