Community & Sustainability
ACTING TODAY FOR A BETTER TOMORROW
What we do today has a significant impact on the eco-systems we operate in and the future we want to build for our next generation.
Collective action and collaboration are key to unlocking the scale of impact needed, so we’re focused on working with our communities to build the future of events with sustainability as an operating value. And we’re turning what used to be dreams into reality, with Singapore EXPO becoming Asia’s most sustainable MICE venue, powered by renewable energy.
Here are some of our recent and ongoing sustainability efforts.

We welcome like-minded partners to join us on our sustainability journey. If you have feedback or enquiries on our sustainability initiatives, or an idea for collaboration, connect with us at [email protected].
Empowering the Next Generation of MICE Talent
At Constellar, we believe in nurturing the future of the MICE industry by providing meaningful learning experiences for our youths. Through mentorship programs and collaborative projects with institutes of higher learning (IHLs) and industry partners, we create real-world opportunities for them to explore the passion, innovation, and dynamism of the events industry.
For instance, Constellar partnered with Singapore Tourism Board and NTUC LearningHub to co-develop and offer courses in key emerging areas of tourism such as sustainability, service experience excellence and technology.
By equipping youths and new joiners with latest industry insights and hands-on experiences, we inspire and empower the next generation of MICE professionals.
Aligning with Global Sustainability Commitments
At Constellar, we are committed to driving meaningful progress in sustainability by aligning with international and regional agendas. As a member of the Global MICE Sustainability Alliance, alongside the Singapore Tourism Board and key industry partners, we actively support Singapore’s ambition to become Asia Pacific’s leading sustainable MICE destination by 2030 and contribute to the nation’s goal of achieving Net Zero emissions by 2050.
Through our managed venue, Singapore EXPO, we collaborate closely with partners, suppliers, and stakeholders across the value chain to accelerate sustainable transformation. As a signatory of the Net Zero Carbon Events initiative, led by the Joint Meetings Industry Council, we are dedicated to reducing our environmental impact and playing our part in the global MICE ecosystem to address climate change.
Our commitment extends to global sustainability frameworks—Singapore EXPO is a proud participant of the United Nations Global Compact and an active member of the Global Sustainable Tourism Council and LowCarbonSG, reinforcing our role in shaping a more responsible and resilient industry.
Powering Events and Singapore EXPO with Renewable Energy
At Singapore EXPO, we are committed to advancing sustainable energy solutions to our operations and evvents. Our massive rooftop solar PV system—one of the largest of its kind—is currently undergoing expansion, which is expected to avoid up to 5,500 metric tonnes of CO₂ emissions annually.
Beyond event spaces, our commitment to sustainability extends to green mobility solutions. Singapore EXPO hosts one of Eastern Singapore’s largest EV charging hubs, with 20 charging stations, all powered by solar energy. To further reduce our carbon footprint, we have also transitioned our onsite support vehicles to electric alternatives, minimising emissions from transportation.
Together, these efforts reflect our ongoing commitment to building a greener, more sustainable future.
Supporting Sustainable Farming & Wastage Reduction
At Singapore EXPO, we take a collaborative approach to sustainable event experiences. We work closely with our F&B partners, who prioritise responsible sourcing, plant-based options, and eco-friendly packaging solutions—helping to reduce reliance on long-haul transportation and lower overall environmental impact. Our rooftop urban farm further supports this approach by contributing fresh, locally grown produce.
Accreditations and Sustainability Reporting
Our commitment to energy efficiency, water conservation, and waste reduction at Singapore EXPO has earned us multiple international accreditations for green building and sustainability excellence. Alongside optimizing our building operations, we invest in workforce development, equipping employees with expertise in standards measurement, reporting, and compliance through ongoing training and education. These efforts have led to prestigious recognitions, including:
- BCA Green Mark Platinum Super Low Energy Certification
- Singapore MICE Sustainability Certification (Platinum)
- Events Industry Council Sustainable Event Standards (Gold)
- Ecovadis Sustainable Certification (Bronze)
- AIPC Quality Standards Certification (Gold)
- Earthcheck Silver Benchmark 2025
