As a trade fair organiser, we see it as our special responsibility to make our events (more) sustainable. Instead of greenwashing, we want to make a real contribution. Can we do this right away? No, but we are trying. Seriously. And if you have any ideas on how we can become more sustainable, please contact us using the form below!
We offset our CO2 emissions with UN Gold Standard® projects through the fairclimatefund
We are currently supporting two projects that not only offset CO2, but also enable clean cooking for families in Burkina Faso and Ethiopia.
Here you can find out more about the fairclimatefund and the projects and offset CO2 yourself:
everwave cleans up the environment: Rubbish collection boats are used to prevent waste from entering the oceans. Artificial intelligence supports the clean-up missions to detect and analyse waste. The collected material is then recycled using environmentally friendly processes and the public is also sensitised to environmental issues. The start-up organises long-term, holistic cleanup projects in countries such as Serbia, Thailand and Cambodia, where it ensures clean waters. To date everwave already collected over 1 million tonnes of waste from rivers.

Dieses Jahr haben wir 100 Bäume in Nordrhein-Westfalen mit Forest Foundation can plant.
Uns war es wichtig, auch Projekte in Deutschland zu unterstützen und wir freuen uns darauf, zukünftig noch mehr Bäume zu pflanzen!

Labdoo ist ein weltweites Netzwerk ehrenamtlicher Helfer*innen, das Kindern digitale Teilhabe in In- und Ausland ermöglicht. Die gemeinnützige Plattform steht allen Menschen weltweit offen, um nicht mehr genutzte Laptops oder Tablets mit leistungsfähiger Bildungssoftware auszustatten. Flugpaten bringen IT-Spenden CO2-neutral vor Ort und holen sie zur Reparatur oder Recycling zurück
We would like to expand our trade fairs in all areas as sustainable as possible design. For the environment comes first the reduction of waste and CO2 emissions. Water and energy savings are important factors as well as the inclusion of Sustainability aspects in the procurement of materials. To this end, we are working on Solutions for sustainable arrival and departure of our exhibitors and visitors.
Note: The emissions from the trade fair in Hamburg are taken as an average value for all ITCS trade fairs for compensation purposes.
The reason for this is that Hamburg as a trade fair location is the furthest away from the ITCS office in Frankfurt. Compared to all other trade fair locations, we have to travel the longest distance to Hamburg to get to the trade fair.
The emission values for Hamburg are therefore maximum values, but are seen as a compensation quantity for all locations.
What does sustainability mean in the tech industry?
Genau dieser Frage stellen wir uns beim Thema Green IT.
Nachhaltigkeit ist DAS Thema der Zukunft. Doch wie lässt sich technischer Fortschritt und mehr Leistung mit stetig steigendem Energiebedarf vereinbaren?
Aussteller können bei uns ihr Engagement und ihre Lösungsansätze für die Probleme der Zukunft auf der Green IT Bühne präsentieren!
