Impact Statement

Our ambition is to lead the global procurement community by connecting the most impactful startups, visionary investors, tech leaders, and forward-thinking enterprises to collaboratively tackle the world’s most pressing challenges. We envision revolutionizing the event industry by setting the gold standard for sustainability, where every DPW event not only inspires innovation but also leaves a positive environmental legacy.

We will inspire companies to procure goods and services in a more sustainable way by using tools to reduce their carbon footprint, and improve social factors such as the elimination of slavery in value chains. Through our commitment to minimizing our carbon footprint, championing sustainable practices, and fostering meaningful connections, we aspire to be the catalyst for global change, driving a paradigm shift towards a more sustainable and prosperous future for all.
