The first two days of the conference are reserved for trade visitors and industry professionals, and will see a “Green Forum” with experts discussing topics from carbon neutrality to green finance. Exhibits will cover environmentally-friendly products and services. A “green transformation service counter” will provide consultation services on ecological issues, while other key activities include business matchmaking meetings and technical visits.
MIECF will offer free admission to the public on the third day, with various workshops and activities.
First organised in 2008, MIECF is intended to be “a professional international platform for environmental protection,” with a particular focus on facilitating sustainability in the tourism and leisure sector.
