Compared to traditional trade shows, virtual trade shows are "greener." Lowering environmental impact and reducing carbon emissions is an increasingly important goal for many companies. Tax incentives for cutting fuel costs are also likely to increase, making virtual exhibits an even more attractive proposition.
The environmental savings from a v-event come in so many ways. Before the event, we eliminate the need for print materials and print advertising. For exhibitor and speakers, we reduce travel related pollution. In your booths you hand out electronic company brochures further reducing wasted paper. For attendees we save not only fuel expenses but the CO2 and other greenhouse gasses of coming out for a physical event.
