Welcome to Barefoot Conferences, where our offsites foster innovation, collaboration, and positive environmental impact. With a strong commitment to sustainability, we strive to create events that not only inspire and educate but also leave a minimal ecological footprint.
Our sustainability expert, Barney Maple, helps leaders to expedite their climate and sustainability progress. He assists in recognizing and leveraging climate innovation, integrating widespread sustainability practices into operations, and maximizing the value they generate. Our commitment extends to addressing the broad scope of the sustainability challenge.
We have the following initiatives to tread lightly on our environment
Reducing Waste
