Regal Hotels Pioneers Green MeetingsElevating Sustainable Practices for MICE Events in Hong Kong

The hospitality scene in Hong Kong has evolved with the introduction of the "iclub" brand by Regal Hotels.  As the city's first carbon-neutral hotel, "iclub" has successfully promoted environmental wellness among individual travelers. Ms. Poman Lo, Vice Chairman and Managing Director of Regal Hotels International and Founder of IST, envisions creating innovative solutions for businesses and event organisers seeking sustainable event options. Together, IST and Regal Hotels lead the Green Meetings initiative, offering a comprehensive range of eco-friendly choices—from venues and catering to dining—seamlessly blending commercial success with environmental responsibility.

"This initiative showcases our unwavering commitment to innovation and fostering an ecosystem where businesses and individuals can collectively champion sustainability," stated Ms. Lo. "The introduction of Green Meetings marks a pivotal advancement in our mission to create a more sustainable planet. By providing our business partners with comprehensive insights into the carbon footprint of their events, we aspire to encourage more sustainable decisions and support the journey towards a net-zero future."

Recognised Framework for Carbon Accounting

At the core of Green Meetings is the Carbon Accounting Report, which provides a holistic analysis of the carbon emissions associated with events held at our properties. The seven key carbon footprint categories measured are Production and Materials, Freight and Logistics, Food and Beverage, Local Transportation, Energy, Accommodation, and Waste. The resultant reports are prepared in accordance to Regal Hotels' Carbon Accounting Methodology. In these reports, event organisers will find the carbon emissions generated by their events, insights into their environmental performance and actionable recommendations for reducing future emissions.

Carbon Emissions Offset

Event organisers can opt to offset their emissions through carbon credits, measurable and verifiable emission reductions from certified climate action projects. Each credit represents the removal or avoidance of one ton of carbon dioxide or greenhouse gas equivalent. As a supporter of sustainable development across Hong Kong, Mainland China and beyond, Regal Hotels is collaborating with established organisations in this carbon emissions offset offer. Following the offset, event organisers will receive a carbon credit retirement certificate, officially recognising their efforts to balance their carbon footprint. This collaboration offers event organisers an opportunity to proactively manage their environmental impact.

Low-carbon Catering and Cooking

Understanding the importance of food and beverage in MICE events, Regal Hotels is dedicated to offering sustainable cuisine that pleases the palate while reducing environmental impact. Our culinary strategy includes innovative low-carbon cooking techniques and carefully sourced ingredients, such as seasonal vegetables and locally sourced, plant-based options, ensuring choices that are both nutritious and eco-friendly. Guests can opt for plant-based menu items that come with emissions 10-25 times lower than animal-based items. This showcases our commitment in delivering sustainable cuisine that delights the palate while minimising environmental impact, in line with our commitment to environmental stewardship.

Regal Hotels, our flagship brand, redefines upscale hospitality with exceptional entertainment and business facilities. Regala Skycity Hotel, conveniently located just minutes from AsiaWorld-Expo, serves as an oasis promoting wellness and sustainability with state-of-the-art amenities. Collectively, our properties offer over 5,000 guest rooms and 100 versatile meeting venues, ideal for all occasions—from small group meetings to large-scale conferences with over 1,000 attendees. As the first hotel group in Hong Kong to introduce a MICE mobile app, we provide an efficient and functional digital communications platform for event organisers and participants. This user-friendly app streamlines the registration process, offers real-time polling to enhance participant engagement, and includes other practical functionalities.

For more information about our Green Meetings and sustainability efforts, please visit our website. International event organisers are encouraged to contact our properties for inquiries related to Green Meetings or other products and services.
