    WORK WITH PURPOSE: SUSTAINABILITY AT THE FORUM

    At The Forum Company, we don’t just create beautiful events — we create them with conscience.
    WORK WITH PURPOSE: SUSTAINABILITY AT THE FORUM

    This month, we proudly hosted the Event Greening Forum in Johannesburg and Cape Town — a celebration of sustainability in the events industry. For us, it wasn’t just an event — it was a reflection of who we are.

    If you care about the planet, about people, and about doing work that leaves a positive legacy, you’ll find a home at The Forum.

    Our Green Ethos

    We’re proud to be:

    • The first African event company to earn Gold Healthy Venue certification
    • A supporter of the Net Zero Carbon Events initiative (GHG-neutral by 2050)
    • A workplace where sustainability, wellness, and inclusivity are part of everyday operations.

    What You’ll Work On (Beyond Your Role)
    We integrate sustainability into every part of our business:

    • Sourcing local, seasonal, plant-based produce
    • Donating food safely and responsibly
    • Composting and eliminating single-use plastics
    • Designing events that are low-waste and low-impact
    • Promoting wellness through healthy menus and movement

    What We’re Working Towards By 2025, we aim to:

    • Serve 40% low-carbon meals
    • Divert 75% of waste from landfill
    • Cut our electricity use by 10%
    • Shift our menus to be majority plant-based and locally sourced

    Because we believe that the people we hire should reflect the future we want to build — creative, conscious, curious.
