Servicebroker plans sustainable corporate events in Munich and across Germany for 100 to 1,000 guests. We have done this for years without a certificate: a sustainability guideline before every event, regional catering and a CO2 calculation via atmosfair. At the 2022 summer event on a Rhine island, 350 guests cycled instead of taking shuttles. We guide you into event sustainability.
The result is satisfied guests and therefore more successful event marketing. Sustainability costs more. And because sustainability is expensive for corporate events, it should also be applied in marketing. Doing good and talking about it is the motto! We make your corporate events socially responsible and sustainable!
Servicebroker plans every sustainable event in four steps. Analysis: we work out who is involved, find potential savings and choose partners by sustainability criteria. Guideline and concept: we put goals, measures and accessibility in writing and agree them with you before the event. Delivery: on site, you have one contact person for sustainability. Review: we calculate the CO2 emissions via atmosfair, deliver the figures for your sustainability report and note what we will do better at the next event.
Up to 70 per cent of an event's emissions come from mobility, meaning travel there and back and journeys on site (source: atmosfair). That is why sustainability starts with the choice of venue and hotel. And that is where our core business lies: hotel room blocks close to the venue, bundled transfers, travel by rail and public transport.
For Finanz Informatik Solutions Plus GmbH, Servicebroker planned the 2022 summer celebration and team event on a Rhine island near Mainz for 350 guests. A sustainability guideline was agreed in advance. Around 80 per cent of the fruit, vegetables and herbs came from the Rheinhessen region, drinks and bread from local producers. Signs were made from reused concrete blocks, wooden slats and recycled grey board. Guests cycled instead of taking shuttles, and the compost became lavender oil, which every guest received as a Christmas present.
Case study: sustainable summer event on the Rhine island
For iPEK, we designed a sustainable dinner at IFAT 2024 for 200 guests from partner companies and top management, with regional, seasonal and largely organic catering.
Servicebroker is prepared for your company's sustainability requirements. We plan following the principles of ISO 20121, choose venues and hotels with environmental management under EMAS or ISO 14001, calculate your event's CO2 emissions via atmosfair and deliver the figures for your CO2 footprint and your sustainability report.
Anyone looking for a green event agency in Munich asks about certification and evidence. Certified? We are not, out of conviction: sustainability grows out of doing. We can still prove it, with a guideline, a CO2 calculation and case studies. And so we guide you into event sustainability step by step, from event to event: better to raise the bar a little each time than to take on too much at once.
Yes. Servicebroker has planned corporate events in Munich and across Germany since 1999. Regional catering, short journeys and a CO2 calculation via atmosfair are part of every booking today. One example is the 2022 summer event of Finanz Informatik Solutions Plus GmbH on a Rhine island near Mainz with 350 guests. We guide companies into event sustainability step by step.
No, out of conviction: sustainability grows out of doing. Servicebroker plans following the principles of ISO 20121 and is prepared for your company's certification requirements: with a sustainability guideline before the event, venues and hotels with EMAS or ISO 14001 and a documented CO2 calculation via atmosfair. That way, your purchasing team gets the evidence it needs.
Yes. After every event, Servicebroker calculates its CO2 emissions via atmosfair. You receive the figures in a form you can take into your sustainability report, together with the measures taken and what we will improve next time. For the emissions that remain after avoidance and reduction, we make a contribution per guest to atmosfair climate protection projects.
Sustainable event management plans an event along the three pillars of sustainability: ecological (travel, catering, energy, waste), social (fair working conditions, accessibility, local partners) and economic (less, but better). At Servicebroker, all three belong to Emotional Event Design: your guests should feel that their hosts have thought of people and the environment.
For sustainable catering, expect around 50 per cent more than for cheap produce. Servicebroker therefore recommends less, but better: the budget moves from quantity to quality, for example to regional producers and organic eggs, and there are no promotional gifts. Because sustainability costs more, it also belongs in your communications: do good and talk about it.

Social responsibility is part of it
At Servicebroker, sustainability has three sides: ecological, social and economic, guided by the 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations (2030 Agenda). We have signed the Charta der Vielfalt, the German diversity charter. Local partners and social projects are a stylistic device of our Emotional Event Design, and if there are souvenirs, they are fair trade. We plan accessibility, inclusion and safety into every event, so that every guest feels welcome.
In our office, this is a matter of course today: our hardware goes to recycling, our servers run largely on renewable electricity, and we print on recycled paper.
