When it comes to the colour of your business these days, there’s only one viable option: green, green, green - particularly if you care about the environment and hope to leave a sustainable legacy for your children and their children’s children.

That’s why we are committed to support the Green Tourism Business Scheme - a fully fledged, properly accredited organisation with roots and branches throughout Scotland.

There are three award levels available within the scheme – gold, silver and bronze. Do I need to tell you that here at Activate, we are going for gold?

However, there are strict criteria we need to meet along the way, including reaching certain environmental benchmarks while complying with environmental legislation. On top of that, we will also be making a real commitment to reduce our environmental impact in everything we do by implementing a whole raft of recommended actions.

And just to make sure we tick all the right boxes, we will be assessed by an independent environmental auditor as we go along. Bring it on.

We may not be the biggest corporate events company in the UK (yet), but we are certainly committed to being the most environmentally friendly.
