As a certi昀椀ed B-Corporation, sustainability is woven into
the fabric of emc3, shaping everything it does internally
and the events it delivers for clients.
The agency has developed a holistic approach that
encompasses environmental, social, and economic
sustainability. This is bolstered by the expertise of
from now, emc3’s in-house sustainability consultancy,
which works with clients to craft bespoke sustainability
strategies, providing practical solutions for sustainable
events, and offering detailed reporting to measure and
enhance impact.
Matilda Riley, lead sustainability consultant, joined emc3
in 2022 to support its B Corp accreditation, which was
completed in 2023. “We are huge advocates for B Corp.
Internally, it has given our team a stronger sense of
purpose. Before, we were just moving from one event
to another, but now there’s more of a story—more
cohesion in what we do. We’re not just working for profit;
we’re working for impact. It’s brought a deeper level of
engagement within the company, reinforcing that what
we’re doing is bigger than just delivering events,” she
explains.
“From a client perspective, B Corp has been a gamechanger. One of the main reasons we won HP—our
biggest event to date—was because we had the B Corp
certification and a solid sustainability offering.”
She adds that being a B Corp has also helped the agency
attract and retain talent, especially in the US, where it
carries a lot of weight and is recognised as a mark of a
company that treats its people well.
Despite having B Corp, emc3 is also pursuing ISO and
EcoVadis certifications for 2025 to meet different client
demands and future-proof its credentials. Sustainability
is offered as standard for all events, even if clients don’t
actively request it and every event now includes a
sustainability audit and post-event report. For 2025, the
agency is shifting from just doing sustainability to actively
teaching it, helping clients understand the why behind
sustainability efforts.
