From the venues we partner with to the communities we work in, events bring people together in powerful ways. At Vidcom, we believe the way we deliver those moments should reflect care not just for our clients, but for our environment. We’re proud to share that Vidcom is now Toitū carbon reduce certified - marking an important milestone in our sustainability journey. This certification means our carbon footprint has been independently measured and verified against international best practice standards. More importantly, it reflects our commitment to actively reducing emissions and operating responsibly for future generations.
As a nationwide audio-visual provider supporting conferences, exhibitions, live events and corporate experiences across Aotearoa, we recognise that our industry has an environmental footprint - from transport and logistics to power consumption and equipment lifecycle. Pursuing Toitū certification was a deliberate decision. We wanted clarity. We wanted accountability. And we wanted a framework to help us embed sustainability into the way we operate - not as an afterthought, but as part of how we do business. Guided by our values - including manaakitanga, accountability, and sustainability - we believe that delivering exceptional events and protecting the environment should go hand in hand.
Through Toitū’s robust measurement process, we identified and quantified our emissions across the business. This provided a clear baseline and helped us understand where our impact is greatest - particularly in transport, energy use, waste and travel. Having this insight allows us to focus our efforts where they matter most and make informed, measurable improvements.
We’re also working closely with our venue partners and clients to support lower-impact event delivery and smarter energy use onsite.
Achieving Toitū carbon reduce certification is not the end point - it’s the foundation. With our baseline established, we are setting clear emissions reduction targets and identifying practical initiatives that will continue to lower our footprint year on year.
Our goal is simple: to deliver world-class event experiences while reducing our environmental impact and contributing to a lower-emissions future for New Zealand.
At Vidcom, we bring events to life. Now, we’re doing it with even greater care for the places and communities that make those events possible.
