A Responsible Festival
Trentino Marketing, after the excellent results obtained in the 2023 and 2024 editions, has started a three-year course for the Trento Economy Festival to implement a sustainable management system compliant with the international standard ISO 20121:2024. In 2025, the system was verified by a third party and led to certification, confirming the organisation's commitment to responsible event management.
The certification
The ISO 20121:2024 standard supports organizations in the design, implementation and evaluation of the impacts generated by events, promoting a structured approach oriented to continuous improvement.
For the 2026 edition, Trentino Marketing renews its commitment to maintaining certification and strengthening actions related to ESA themes, both in the design and execution phases of the Festival. Specific indicators have been defined to monitor and reduce impacts, with the aim of implementing increasingly effective mitigation policies, including through the sharing of choices and results with all stakeholders involved.
The commitment of Trentino Marketing
Trentino Marketing, as co-organiser, has implemented its management system through processes and procedures aimed at ensuring the assessment of the economic, social and environmental impacts generated by the Festival.
The Company has signed a formal Sustainable Development Policy document detailing the objectives in the different aspects of sustainability.
The Sustainable Development Policy underlines Trentino Marketing's responsibility towards stakeholders for measuring and reducing impacts and includes the definition of commitments in relation to the Principles of Sustainable Development indicated by the standard.
In line with the indications of the United Nations 2030 Agenda, with respect to the 17 sustainable development goals and in common with SproSS, Trentino Marketing, through the design and implementation of the Festival, undertakes to contribute to the achievement of the following objectives:
# GOAL 4. Provide quality, equitable and inclusive education and learning opportunities for all
# GOAL 5. Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls
# GOAL 11. Making cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, durable and sustainable
# GOAL 12. Ensuring sustainable models of production and consumption
