What is an NAEM IMPACT Regional Event?

NAEM will put on three virtual IMPACT programs throughout the year on different sustainability topics. This year's topics are:
  • May 28, 2025: Advancing Sustainable Supply Chain Initiatives
  • August 13, 2025: Advancing Industrial Efficiency and Waste Reduction
  • December 3, 2025: Preparing for 2026 Corporate Reporting
We are looking for partners to host an in-person event on the same topics above on the same dates. The purpose of the in-person events is to attract local EHS&S professionals who are looking to network, benchmark and discuss the topic in more depth in-person. The attendees will be local to the city where the in-person event is hosted so that they don't have to travel far to avoid costly travel and time away from work. The cost to host a regional event is $1,300 plus whatever costs you incur to put on the event.

NAEM will provide the recorded sessions so that the in-person attendees can watch the program together (we recommend picking one session to watch if there are multiple). Following the recorded session, hosts can facilitate an in-person discussion on the same breakout discussion topic we are offering at the virtual event with a subject matter expert and include a live Q&A and networking. Hosts may choose their own breakout discussion topic as well if they have NAEM approve it ahead of time. Hosts can also provide a lunch, dinner, or networking opportunity for attendees that day. Hosts are responsible for event logistics and execution. While NAEM will market the host's in-person regional event, the hosts are ultimately responsible for recruiting people to their event so it is a huge success.

Value of Hosting an IMPACT Regional Event

Hosting an IMPACT Regional Event is a wonderful way for EHS & Sustainability professionals to connect locally in-person. As the Host, you are actively engaged in fostering this professional community.

Hosting an IMPACT Regional Event will give you great brand exposure. In addition to your own company’s outreach efforts, NAEM will market all regional events to our network of EHS & Sustainability professionals.
