The fourth All-Ireland Sustainability Summit & Expo is returning to Belfast on Wednesday, June 18th, at a new venue, the ICC Belfast. In a fitting return to the city centre, Belfast was recently named as the most sustainable visitor destination in the UK and Ireland in 2024 by the Global Destination Sustainability Index (GDS-Index), featuring within the Top 10 globally.

This year’s city centre event promises to be the most ambitious yet with the introduction of complimentary sustainability clinic and an expanded adjoining sustainability expo.

Organised by Danielle McCormick, Director at Triterra, the All-Ireland Sustainability Summit first took place back in 2022, with approximately 150 attendees. Designed to be an event that would help businesses to navigate the rapidly evolving sustainability and ESG landscape, the Summit has grown year-on-year, with businesspeople, industry leaders and sustainability professionals travelling from across Ireland to attend the one-day event.

For many businesses and sectors, sustainability can be complex, with organisations not knowing where to start. This is why, for the first time, the Summit will host free sustainability clinic with experts who can advise visitors on next steps.

“Sustainability is no longer a choice. I hear from many businesses that they know they need to focus on sustainability, they want to play a role and be part of the solution, but more often than not, the biggest question is ‘where to start?’,” explains Danielle McCormick, Founder of the All-Ireland Sustainability Summit.

Danielle continues: “This is exactly why we are introducing our first-ever Sustainability Clinic. It’s imperative that we support businesses and organisations, big and small, to take the first steps in reducing their carbon footprint. We want to equip visitors, simplify the process and offer free, practical advice from a wide range of sectoral experts.
