Our impact

As a global event agency we are determined to leave behind a positive impact, not a footprint. The key to our approach is doing the right thing – for our people, our clients, our industry, and our planet — and as a B Corp, this is at the core of of everything we do.

Our Mission

The events we work on inspire audiences, nurture talent, and provide the stage for celebration and connection. This drives us, as organisers, and our overall mission to empower the right to speak and be heard, creating events and experiences that inspire positive change.


Broadsword is proud to be a certified B Corp™

So, what does that mean? 

The B Corp certification helps consumers identify companies using business as a force for good. The growing community of certified business share a mission to benefit people, communities, and the planet alongside profit.

From contributing to charities to managing supply chain, certified B Corporations (B Corps for short) consider their impact on their workers, communities, customers, and planet in every thing they do.

To certify as a B Corp, businesses are verified through the B Impact Assessment — a rigorous assessment where they must achieve a score of 80 or above on social and environmental performance. B Corps are required to re-certify every three years to encourage continuous improvement.

Our commitment to being a socially responsible and environmentally conscious business is ongoing and we actively measure and share our impact across all 5 impact areas. Our first company impact report holds us accountable to these commitments. The report details our impact highlights from the past year and what’s next for us as we continue to move forward.

Sustainable Events

We can work with you to measure the impact of your event using our reporting tool. This includes pre-event guidance where we are able to predict your footprint using data-driven insights and provide creative solutions to reduce the carbon across key areas of the event. Post-event, detailed reports are available to measure the impact and offset the remaining footprint to create a carbon neutral event. 

Inclusive Events

We can support in identifying areas to help incorporate diversity, equity and inclusion into the event planning process. For example, translation, accessible venue selection, journey planning, wellbeing spaces, and digital guidelines.

Social Responsibility

There are huge ROI and benefits for businesses and events that engage in good causes. We can offer a wide range of ideas from fundraising activities to community projects, as well as sourcing ethical, local items for merchandise and gifting.
