GEWISS is ISO 20121 certified for sustainable event management at the GEC

GEWISS S.p.A. has recently earned ISO 20121 certification, the international standard that attests to the sustainable management of events hosted at the GEWISS Experience Center (GEC) in Cenate Sotto, Bergamo. The GEC is the meeting space that offers an immersive digital journey through the world and solutions of the Group. Issued by third-party certifier IMQ in May 2025, the certification confirms the company’s concrete and proudly pursued commitment to a vision of sustainability that extends beyond products to include internal processes, corporate culture and opportunities for engagement with clients, stakeholders and partners.

ISO 20121 defines the requirements of a Sustainable Event Management System. It is designed to help organizations of all types and sizes plan and deliver sustainable events by minimizing negative impacts on the environment, society and the economy, while maximizing positive outcomes.

The standard provides a structured framework that applies across the entire event lifecycle. The revision also places greater emphasis on circularity climate resilience and supply chain sustainability.

In practical terms, the system implemented at the GEWISS Experience Center involves the efficient resource management, promotion of fair working conditions and engagement of local communities to raise awareness among all stakeholders.

Each event thus becomes an opportunity to strengthen a shared and participatory sustainability culture.
