What sets B Greenly apart from other certifications?
B Greenly is an international organization exclusively dedicated to sustainability certification for Events or Venues. We are not a company that offers certifications across multiple sectors or with diverse business areas—our focus is solely on Events and Venues.
This specialization has allowed us to become an international standard, with a presence in more than 30 countries and certifications that are highly regarded within our industry.
What is the B Greenly Certificate based on?
All certifications are issued by private entities; there are no certifications granted by public or official bodies. B Greenly certifications are grounded in the main global organizations that lead in sustainability, such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), the 2030 Agenda, the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI), the World Economic Forum (WEF) metrics, various European Union (EU) Directives and Regulations, and any other relevant standards in the field.
What is the B Greenly methodology?
The B Greenly methodology is based on parameters and metrics derived from the main global organizations recognized for sustainability. It evaluates and audits ten areas directly related to an Event or Venue. Each area includes different indicators aligned with ESG criteria, so sustainability is assessed in a broad sense, covering social, economic, and environmental aspects. It’s a fast and efficient system that allows us to certify an Event or Venue anywhere in the world with convenience while maintaining a high-quality certification process.
Where can I find references for B Greenly-certified events?
On both the B Greenly website and our social media (Instagram and LinkedIn), you can find specific references for Events and Venues certified by B Greenly. The website also includes a list of certifications categorized by country.
In addition, our clients often promote their B Greenly certification on their own media and social platforms.
What is the cost of a B Greenly certificate?
B Greenly offers different pricing models. The cost of a B Greenly Certification depends on the chosen certification service model and the type of Event or Venue to be certified. In any case, our prices are market-adjusted, offering high-quality services at affordable costs.
Why do I need a B Greenly certification?
Our sustainability certification offers various benefits, both tangible and intangible. Above all, we emphasize the reputational value it adds to an Event or Venue—though this requires a good communication strategy, an area where we support our clients.
Economically, the certification is also a powerful tool to attract sponsorship (in the case of Events) or to enhance the commercial appeal of a Venue.
Can an individual be B Greenly-certified?
No, B Greenly only certifies Events or Venues—not individuals. A person can organize an event, and in that case, B Greenly can certify the event itself, but not the person. Similarly, a Venue owner cannot be certified—only the space where the events take place is eligible for certification.
How do I publicize that my event is B Greenly-certified?
On our website and social media, we highlight all events certified by B Greenly. Our clients also promote their certification on their websites and social platforms.
Additionally, for some certifications, we provide a physical deliverable—a display plaque that serves as an official acknowledgment.
I am a B Greenly-certified Event or Venue. Now what?
First of all, congratulations—this means your Event or Venue is sustainable. From this point on, we will continue improving areas and parameters so that with each renewal, the sustainability level increases. Sustainability is a long-term journey that requires commitment, time, and consistency.
