The Forum Acquisti Verdi Veneto (Veneto Green Procurement Forum) is the landmark annual event for Green Public Procurement (GPP) policies, projects, goods, and services. Promoted by the Veneto Region, with VSF as an organizational partner, the event brings together key stakeholders in procuring sustainable goods and services and advancing the ecological transition of production and consumption patterns, fostering dialogue and connections among institutions, businesses, and organized civil society.
Now in its eighth edition, the forum aims to promote a widespread culture of green purchasing, serve as a platform for exchanging best practices, and connect the supply and demand for environmentally friendly goods and services.
This seminar initiative is organized in coordination with the Venice Sustainability Foundation (VSF) under the Energy Transition and Environment (ETE) thematic area.
The day will open with an awards ceremony recognizing businesses and contracting authorities nominated for the 2024 “Compraverde Veneto” (Buy Green Veneto) Award. Following the ceremony, a dedicated panel of international institutions and companies will address GPP from their respective perspectives. The afternoon session will focus on training on GPP topics and green innovations, with a special focus on key initiatives outlined in the new Regional GPP Action Plan adopted by the Veneto Region in February 2024. Finally, the event will review proposals submitted by trade associations.
The event will also offer members of trade associations and professional orders (architects and engineers) an opportunity to earn continuing education credits.
