Since 2020, the Sustainable Brands Japan has been implementing sustainability initiatives at its events.
These efforts have progressively expanded, including the calculation of CO2 emissions covering the SCOPE 3 related to event operations.
Since 2023, the event has achieved carbon neutrality through the use of carbon offsets.
SB’25 TOKYO-Marunouchi will also aim to deliver an even more sustainable event.
