Convene 4 Climate (C4C) is a global platform and movement aimed at accelerating the transition of the Business Events Industry (BEI) towards sustainability and regeneration. 

A collaborative initiative born in 2024 between PCMA in collaboration with The Strategic Alliance of National Convention Bureaux of Europe (SANCBE), C4C has taken a structured, action-oriented approach, stimulating cross-sector collaboration to promote and realise feasible tactics that enable industry stakeholders to drive measurable change. 

This platform will bring together BEI and other sectors to explore future scenarios, growing knowledge and creative solutions around the intersection of climate-tech and the world of Business Events. Through creating workshop-based and lasered-focus content environments we will find tools and technology, skills and people to propel better decisions and the ability to act now. 

MISSION & VISION

Our Mission: 

To lead the Business Events Industry and adjacent sectors to take bold action on sustainability. By fostering cross-sector collaboration, innovation, and a strong sense of shared responsibility, we drive practical, measurable, and high-impact strategies for the twin transformation. Balancing a human-centred approach with technological solutions, we leverage the power of Business Events as catalysts for sustainable action across environmental, social and economic aspects.

In a future global society built on sustainability by design, we envision a thriving Business Events Industry collaborating far beyond its traditional boundaries to drive powerful multiplier effects across continents and sectors. We strive to build an interconnected ecosystem of organisations where collective responsibility, purpose-driven innovation, and regeneration are integral to our thinking and actions. Success is measured not merely by growth, but by our meaningful contributions to environmental responsibility, social equity, and economic resilience—allowing for global alignment and local personalisation that respects and responds to diverse regional needs.
