Our sustainability strategy
BETTER EVENTS
Viparis developed its first sustainability policy in 2014, the year in which we became the first event industry operator in the world to achieve ISO 20121 certification across all our venues and activities.
In 2018, we sought to strengthen our contribution through a new BETTER EVENTS policy built around three pillars and ambitious commitments: Better for the Environment, Better Heritage, and Better at Heart. This strategy is part of a long-term roadmap aimed at sustainably transforming our business by 2030.
In 2024, Viparis took a further step forward by publishing a sustainability statement in compliance with the European Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), demonstrating its commitment to a more responsible, transparent, and sustainable economy.
Viparis reaffirms its commitment to delivering environmentally responsible, inclusive events that create value for all its stakeholders, including clients, partners, and local communities. All the objectives of our strategy are aligned with an ambitious roadmap designed to drive the sustainable transformation of our business.


Audrey's testimony
"At Viparis, we believe in an event industry that creates lasting positive change for territories and organizations.
For more than ten years, as a pioneer of ISO 20121 certification in the events sector, we have pursued an ambitious path: combining performance, responsibility, and positive impact across all our venues and services.
Through our Better Events strategy, we take concrete action to preserve the environment, create a lasting legacy for the communities we serve, and strengthen engagement at the heart of our teams.
Alongside our clients and partners, we are working together to build more responsible, more inclusive, and value-creating events for all.”

Julien's testimony
“At Viparis, the events industry of tomorrow is built around three pillars, fully integrated into our Better Events sustainability strategy: reducing the environmental footprint of our event hosting activities (Better for the Environment), building a lasting, local and responsible legacy for the Greater Paris region (Better Heritage), and enriching the experience of our employees while promoting diversity and inclusion (Better at Heart).
These commitments are part of a collective dynamic, driven by all Viparis employees and by our community of Better Events Ambassadors, whose involvement is concretely advancing our ambitions.”
