Carbon Offset
Connect with Sustainability
CIM CONNECT 2025 continues our commitment to sustainability with the event taking place at the Montreal Convention Centre, one of the first buildings in the Americas to achieve carbon-neutral building status. Through innovative environmental initiatives and an offset program that contributes to the management and planting of trees in the Université Laval’s Montmorency Forest, the Convention Centre provides a stunning and sustainable backdrop for this year’s conference.
Carbon Reduction Partner
Connect with Sustainability
In line with our 2025 sustainability goals, we continue to encourage our attendees to reduce their personal footprint by encouraging sustainable choices throughout the event. We are also pleased to once again partner with Invert, a leading carbon credit provider, to provide attendees with the option of offsetting their travel emissions through support of a high-integrity, improved forest management (IFM) project, Bonos Laguna Síjil Noh-Há, located in Mexico’s Yucatán Peninsula.
