Exhibitors Pledge for a Sustainable MIPIM

As the flagship event for the international real estate industry, MIPIM takes its responsibilities seriously. In a time of profound economic, social and environmental change, we intend to lead by example with a series of concrete commitments.

We are inviting businesses participating in MIPIM to join us in signing an ambitious agreement, the MIPIM Sustainability Pledge for Exhibitors. In addition to the ‘Road to Zero’ initiative launched in 2023, MIPIM will expand its global strategy to maximise the event’s social impact, while minimising MIPIM’s environmental impact.

Low carbon transportation

#1

To monitor the carbon footprint of their travel to MIPIM

#2 (for International exhibitors)

To encourage offsetting the carbon emissions from their carbon-intensive travel, such as flights, through an organization of their choice.

#2 (for French exhibitors)

At least 50% of their delegation should reach MIPIM in a sustainable way, for example by taking the train; and to pledge that 75% of team members will reach MIPIM using low carbon means for the next edition.

A greener stand

#3

We have identified five ways in which exhibitors can make their stands more ecofriendly. We ask that delegations achieve three out of five, and five out of five for the next edition.

More than 90% of the resources used in the design of the stand, by weight, should be re-used, reusable or recycled materials
Only recycled or recyclable materials, no PVC, no solvents, and vegetable or water-based inks for all signage
To rent all furniture, plants and decor
No more single use gifts, gadgets or objects
100% waste recycling and sorting

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

#4

To ensure that women make up 50% of their speaking engagements, and that there is always at least one female speaker when two or more people are publicly speaking on their stand or at the conference

#5

Commit to monitoring the number of women attending, to identify female talent within their organisation, and to increase the firm’s overall female representation at MIPIM by 20% each year until they reach 50%
