Decarbonising the events industry, together. At RX, we’re serious about sustainability. We are founding members of the Net Zero Carbon Events pledge to make our company, our events and the wider events industry net zero. We commit to being net zero by 2040 and to make a 50% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. In 2023 we will publish our pathway to net zero, setting out our reduction strategy with key milestones for all our events. Given the complex nature of our supply chain and the emissions associated with a show, it is only by working together as an industry that we will be able to reduce our impact. We are building a company of net zero heroes to take action and ensure a sustainable future.

It’s only by working together as a industry that we will achieve our goals. 

Rx Italy and MCE are concretely committed to promoting responsible communications, hosting and enhancing technologies, applications, products, solutions and communication models that combine production ethics, respect for the environment, diversity and quality of life for everyone. The goal is to showcase the excellences of the sector, to build a better future and enhance "ethically-minded" models, with the 17 goals of the United Nations 2030 Agenda (Goals for Sustainable Development) as the guiding reference point.

RX Italy has embarked on a path to set up its own sustainable event Management System, obtaining the ISO 20121 certification for the MCE event, with the certifying body ICIM Spa and accreditation by Accredia. Getting certified not only represents RX Iyaly's commitment to sustainability; but also the desire to become a ‘sustainable’ driving force for the entire supply chain, from exhibitors to visitors and partners.

Certification translates into reduced environmental impacts throughout all the event’s phases. Into the enhancement of social-ethical impacts, from selecting suppliers based on strict environmental criteria, to choosing locations and accommodations that follow good sustainable management practices, to recycling furniture and materials used during the events. Ethical behaviour per se implies a sense of solidarity, aiming for a common goal - for a better future.

There are several objectives and initiatives at MCE to underline the importance of the theme of sustainability, which goes through the transformation of the event according to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), defined by the United Nations Organisation as the winning strategy "to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all", signed in September 2015 by the 193 UN member countries' governments.
