- Digital-Only Materials: All convention materials will be digital to reduce paper waste.
- Sustainable Food: We’re prioritizing local, sustainable food options, with a farm-to-table approach and mindful food sourcing to reduce waste.
- Walkable City: Victoria’s walkable city center encourages attendees to explore on foot and minimize transportation emissions.
