SUSTAINABILITY RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CONVENTA CROSSOVER 2025
We invite all participants to help us make this event more sustainable. Small actions, when taken together, have a big impact.
Mobility
- Take the train instead of flying – and reduce your carbon footprint.
- Walk to the venue – you can reach Ljubljana Castle from several paths and burn around 120 calories.

- Do you like biking? Hop on a Bicikelj from anywhere in Ljubljana.

Waste
- Produce less waste and recycle responsibly in our recycling points available around the castle.
- Bring your own cup for coffee.
- Avoid single-use plastic whenever possible and choose products with minimal packaging.
Water
- Drink tap water and refill your own bottle. Ljubljana’s tap water is clean, safe, and 225 times cheaper than bottled.
- Turn off the tap immediately after use.
Energy
- Switch off lights when leaving a room.
- Unplug devices when not in use, avoid wasting hot water, and adjust heating/cooling mindfully—changing the temperature by just 1°C can save 10% of energy.
Food & Drink
- Choose seasonal, locally grown food, like the one from our catering provider!
- Prioritise plant-based meals and take only what you’ll eat to help reduce food waste.
Clothing
- Wear what you already have instead of buying new outfits for the event.
Digital First
- Keep your travel documents, agenda, and notes electronic—avoid unnecessary printing.
Respect & Awareness
- At the event, advocate fair play: be transparent, inclusive, and respectful of diversity.
- Support others by spreading awareness about sustainability measures and encouraging responsible practices.
- Share your positive experience and help us spread the word about our green story.
