Environmental Social Responsibility

PrimeGlobal has been awarded the 2024 Sustainability Initiative of the year by the International Accounting Bulletin (IAB). We are passionate about promoting Environmental Social Responsibility (ESR) by supporting local environments, promoting diversity, and assisting communities through our staff, member firms, and wider stakeholders. We have continued the proud tradition of creating sustainable events through the PrimeGlobal Planet initiative by reducing the carbon footprint of our events. Through ESR initiatives, we continue to support the environment and local communities, giving back to the cities we visit.

Our Environmental Social Responsibility strategy is linked to the United Nations Sustainability Development Goals (SDGs) and focuses on two main areas:

1) Through our PrimeGlobal Planet initiative, we continue to pledge to organizing green events and lessening our environmental footprint during our international conferences.

2) Through our Local Community Support initiatives, we help local communities by donating food to homeless shelters, building wheelchairs for wounded veterans, and supporting organizations that provide professional training and job placements for youth in underserved communities, and much more.

From carbon emissions to waste management, events have many impacts that can be significant for the environment. We recognize these impacts and are striving to create meetings that leave a positive impact in the communities where our meetings are being held. In an effort to produce meetings that are more sensitive to the environment, we introduced the PrimeGlobal Planet initiative, created to lessen the environmental footprint in the cities we visit.

Producing green events goes beyond specific actions such as recycling, serving local/organic food or reducing printing. A 100% sustainable event incorporates a balanced approach to economic activity, environmental responsibility and social progress.

At each of our events, we always have an ESR initiative which ranges from helping local environmental groups to partnering with charities to make donations to local causes. Our latest video shows our members at an event working in teams and decorating TOMs shoes. In the end we were able to donate 95 pairs of shoes to the Coachella Valley Rescue Mission.

We are excited to announce our partnership with sumthing, a forward-thinking organization dedicated to investing in nature-positive initiatives.

In our quest to deliver exceptional events, we've always been mindful of the environmental footprint they leave behind. As global awareness of environmental challenges grows, so does the urgency for businesses to take proactive steps towards sustainability. This partnership represents our commitment to addressing this imperative head-on.

We are making tangible donations to nature restoration projects through the sumthing platform including plastic collection in Cambodia and planting mangrove trees in Kenya. Find out more here.

With every event we host, we're making a positive difference to the planet.
