Impetus Digital was promoted to the Aclymate Silver Tier for their efforts in crafting carbon-neutral virtual and live meetings for life science companies.
A year after Impetus Digital first calculated and offset all of our home office-related emissions, we’re excited to announce that we have now implemented Phase 2 of our journey toward carbon neutrality. As of January 2024, all of the carbon emissions associated with Impetus Digital staff attending hybrid meetings live (i.e., flights, ground transportation for local meetings, and accommodation) have been–and will continue to be–offset. This means that–while we still encourage clients to go fully virtual to cut down on their meeting-associated emissions almost entirely–those opting for a hybrid event can still feel good knowing that any Impetus support staff attending the meeting in person is not contributing to the carbon footprint of the event.
In fact, we were recently promoted to the Aclymate Silver Tier for our efforts to date. Plus, we continue to be platinum-certified by the Green Business Benchmark (GBB), demonstrating our commitment to sustainable practices!
Phase 3 and beyond will involve calculating and offsetting the emissions associated with the actual meeting venues, any Impetus business trips for reasons other than attending live client meetings and events (e.g., conference attendance), and the small but non-negligible emissions associated with our online portals. Stay tuned for more updates!
- Did you know that HCP advisors consider the minimal environmental impact as one of the top benefits of virtual small-group meetings such as advisory boards? (See other benefits here.)
