Mitigating our environmental impact for tradeshows in the US

Our carbon neutral initiative

At ST, we are committed to mitigating our environmental impact through various initiatives, such as selecting suppliers with compatible sustainability approaches and encouraging sustainable travel options for our employees.
 

This year, we are taking a step further to make our participation at tradeshows in the United States fully carbon compensated. In collaboration with the certified organization Ecoevents, we are completely offsetting our carbon emissions by investing in projects that reduce or capture an equivalent amount of carbon to that generated by our participation in the each event.

#1 - Data collection

ST evaluates, collects, and consolidates the emissions related to the event in the following areas, as pre-defined in the Ecoevents methodology:

• Event location
• Food and beverages consumed by event participants, as well as overnight stays
• Mobility used for setting up the venue
• Energy and heating used at the event, and waste generated
• Materials used for the event
• Other activities impacting the carbon footprint

#3 - Carbon compensation

The tons of CO2 equivalent are compensated through the purchase of carbon credits.
 

ST participates in reforestation initiatives, which allows us to fully offset our carbon emissions linked to our participation at tradeshows in the US beginning with Sensors Converge 2025 (June 24-26)  moving ST closer to our goal of carbon neutrality.
