“…Untuk dapat memenangkan persaingan tersebut, para pemasar destinasi harus memahami berbagai faktor yang menjadi pertimbangan dari Professional Conference Organizer (PCO) dan Professional Event Organizer (PEO) dalam menentukan venue yang akan digunakan pada sebuah event MICE. Saat ini seiring dengan semakin mengglobalnya isu terkait lingkungan, praktik-praktik keberlanjutan (sustainable practices) dalam pelaksanaan event semakin mendapatkan perhatian yang besar dari pihak penyelenggara event MICE (Pavluković, Vujičić, Kennell, & Cimbaljević, 2020).

As the Meeting, Incentive, Convention, and Exhibition (MICE) sector in Indonesia continues to expand, awareness of the importance of reducing negative environmental impacts has emerged among various stakeholder groups. Choosing a venue that has incorporated sustainable practices is a crucial step in implementing MICE with environmental considerations. The purpose of this study is to ascertain the attitudes of MICE industry decision-makers toward the issue of sustainable practices and to assess the impact of this on behavior intention when selecting venues for MICE activities. To accomplish this goal, this study conducted an online (supervised) survey of meeting planners on Professional Conference Organizers (PCO) and Professional Event Organizers (PEO) who are members of company associations operating in the MICE industry. According to the research findings, most meeting planners have a favorable opinion of sustainable practices. Furthermore, it was also discovered that the variable of sustainable practices had a significant impact on the intention to select a venue for conducting MICE events. Finally, this study suggests that the dissemination and acceptance of environmentally friendly MICE practices among industrial stakeholders should focus on the meeting planner group at the middle to upper managerial levels

The convention and events industry has a unique opportunity to make a positive impact in an era when sustainability and environmental consciousness are gaining paramount importance. Convention bureaus, as key players in this industry, have a crucial role to play in promoting and fostering sustainability practices. This article explores the influence convention bureaus wield in shaping a sustainable event industry, examining their role, initiatives, challenges, and the potential benefits of their efforts. Convention bureaus serve as intermediaries between event organisers and destinations, providing support and resources to navigate the destination and engage with local suppliers. The Strategic Alliance of the National Convention Bureaux of Europe recognises the urgent need for transformative change and is committed to sustainability efforts. They advocate for action, collaboration, and alignment with international goals and initiatives. Convention bureaus can implement certification programs, provide education and training, and foster collaboration and partnerships to drive sustainable initiatives. Sustainable practices offer benefits such as reducing environmental impact, promoting social responsibility, and creating economic opportunities. However, challenges include financial constraints, lack of awareness, and measuring impact and accountability.
