SINGAPORE’S MICE Sustainability

SINGAPORE’S MICE Sustainability

Singapore has positioned itself at the forefront of sustainable Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Exhibitions (MICE) globally — merging world-class business events with strong environmental and social stewardship. As a strategic hub for international business events, Singapore’s MICE sustainability efforts reflect a commitment to environmental protection, resource efficiency, and lasting positive impact.

Benefits of Sustainable MICE in Singapore

Enhanced environmental performance with measurable carbon and waste reduction.
Stronger social and economic impact, aligning events with broader corporate ESG and sustainability goals.
Competitive differentiation, as global organisations increasingly prioritise responsible and low-impact business events.

Strategic Vision & National Commitment

Singapore’s MICE sustainability journey is guided by national and global frameworks:

Association of Convention & Exhibition Organisers & Suppliers (SACEOS), sets a strategic pathway for making Singapore the leading sustainable MICE destination in Asia Pacific by 2030, with a broader goal of net-zero emissions by 2050
The initiatives align with the Singapore Green Plan 2030 and the UN Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs), underscoring Singapore’s national sustainability commitments.

Sustainability Frameworks and Certification

To professionalise and elevate sustainability practices across the MICE ecosystem, Singapore has introduced industry-specific frameworks:

Singapore MICE Sustainability Certification (MSC) — a GSTC-recognized framework for sustainable MICE operations. This certification equips event organisers, venues, and suppliers with actionable sustainability standards covering carbon, waste, and resource management.
Workshop Agreements (WA 3 & WA 4) — defined guidelines on waste management and carbon emissions management to help the MICE industry adopt measurable and verifiable sustainability practices.

Practical Sustainability in Action

Singapore’s sustainability efforts extend beyond strategy and certification into tangible measures that MICE organisers can integrate into event planning:

Carbon and Resource Management: Tools such as the MICE Venue Sustainability Playbook give venues and organisers practical guidance on energy efficiency, waste reduction, and water conservation.
Green Transport and Logistics: The city’s efficient public transport network and emerging electric mobility ecosystem help reduce the environmental footprint of delegate travel.
Venue Leadership: Iconic MICE venues — including Sands Expo & Convention Centre and Singapore EXPO — have achieved sustainability certifications and adopted smart energy and waste systems, showcasing best practices in sustainable facility management.
Waste and Plastic Reduction: Digitalisation of event processes, reusable materials, and zero-waste initiatives are actively promoted to reduce single-use waste at events
