But what exactly is a responsible event?

At a time when environmental and social impact is at the heart of the concerns of individuals and companies alike, we'd like to set out a framework and a definition of what makes an event responsible. And, of course, this definition commits us! While organizing an event is in itself a militant act in our eyes, as it fights against the temptation to "go digital" and helps to combat the isolation of individuals, other characteristics obviously come into play.

Environmental Commitment

Too much waste is produced in the course of our events business. ISO 20121 certified, Comet is committed to reducing its carbon footprint and promoting an environmentally-friendly approach. This means meticulously choosing recycled and local materials, and adhering to strict sustainability standards. Every detail of our furniture, from recycled plastic chairs by Furniture for Good to wall decorations byAtelier Nickel Chrome, is designed to minimize our ecological impact.

Social responsibility

For Comet, there can be no responsible event without a social commitment. That's why the company has signed partnerships with organizations such as Student Pop, to support student employment and help finance their studies.

The Circular Economy in Action

In our view, a responsible event also includes the circular economy. By collaborating with partners such as Selency, Dereva and Emmaüs, Comet gives a second life to second-hand furniture and decorations, proving that design can also be environmentally friendly. This creative and innovative approach anchors Comet's action in favor of waste reduction and the promotion of responsible consumption.

Collective Impact

Finally, what really distinguishes a responsible event in our eyes is the emphasis placed on collective impact. We don't just organize events, we create collective experiences during which each participant is invited to be co-responsible for his or her footprint. Using tools like ClimateSeed, Comet encourages its customers to assess the carbon impact of their events, transforming every gathering into an opportunity for learning and continuous improvement.

In short, for us, a responsible event is a little more than just an event. It's a commitment to the planet, to society and to the future. It's a concrete, visible, unifying act, a declaration of intent that transforms every meeting into an opportunity to make a positive difference in the world.
