About Green Power Conferences

I have never attended a Green Power Conference before.  What can I expect?
Green Power Conferences are research led independent events that provide information, interactivity and networking for our delegates.  The quality of the conference agenda is the cornerstone of the event.  Many of the series and events in our portfolio have been established for several years and have a proven track record and when we launch new events we invest in our database of contacts to ensure these events are a success as well.

With so many other events in the sustainability sector, why should I choose to attend a Green Power Conference?
Green Power Conferences focuses entirely in this sector and has built an excellent reputation within the industry which enables us to work with key industry associations and publications to maximise these events.  As we are not producing non sustainability events it also enables our research team to develop their expertise and further improve the quality of the agendas.

Why do you organise conferences which focus on the bio fuels industry?  Does this not conflict with your green policies?
Biofuels is a fantastic alternative fuel if created in a sustainable manner.  Our events are focusing on the sustainable development of Biofuels in all regions of the world as well as looking at next generation technologies that are even more effective.  Our events will assist the industry to reach these new greener technologies faster.

Why do you print and mail hardcopy versions of your programmes?
Green Power try to market responsibly both for the environment and in the way that we use people's contact data. We use paper from renewable sources and environmentally responsible suppliers, we use telephone, email and fax marketing as much as we can to reduce environmental impact and we carbon offset where possible, and even our web hosting is Carbon Neutral.

As much as we try not to; we still have to use a small amount of postal mail because it is an effective marketing channel, which ensures a profitable level of attendance at our events – without postal mail some of our conferences would not be viable.

We would like to give you the opportunity to choose how we contact you about our products. Please use this form to choose how we contact you, or to suggest  how we might improve our marketing, visit: www.greenpowerconferences.com/update

Are any side events organised alongside Green Power events?
Yes, many of our conferences have seminars and workshops alongside them to enable delegates to discuss related issues in more depth.  These can be booked alongside the main conference days. 

Networking - Can I get in touch with speakers/other delegates before the event?
Green Power Conferences is always trying to improve our products and increase the value for our customers. One of our most popular features is the online networking – All of our pre-registered delegates, speakers and guests can contact each other, organise meetings and network before, during and after our conferences using our easy to use, private networking system.

For more information please visit the networking page here: www.greenpowerconferences.com/networking/

What does Green Power do to make its events sustainable?
We recognise that our work may have a direct or indirect effect on the local and/or regional environments in which we operate. We therefore strive to reduce any harm that this may cause on the environment.  As the first company to offer professionally organised events focusing on the sustainability sector, we are as committed to applying best green practices within our own company as we are to promoting green issues and the sustainability sector around the world.
