Creating a sustainable event is an important aspect of our goals for 2026.

Find out more below about how we are planning to reduce our impact for CYBERUK 2026.

We are giving delegates the option to contribute to fund environmental restoration for the impact of their emissions travelling to the event. We would always encourage the use of public transport where possible but also understand that this is not always an option, especially for those travelling from overseas.

Being able to contribute to tackle the impact of emissions caused by travelling to CYBERUK is a great alternative to help reduce event impact.

CYBERUK 2026 are working with onboard:earth who specialise in tackling travel impact for the events industry and work with partners to fund environmental restoration.

Marine ecosystem restoration: Protecting and restoring UK seagrass beds and advocating globally for safeguarding these vital habitats and their wildlife.

Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) clean cookstove project: Helping communities in Togo adopt clean cookstoves that use 50% less wood, reducing deforestation and creating livelihoods for local women who produce the stoves.

Tree planting in Northern Malawi: Planting trees to capture carbon while supporting sustainable livelihoods for communities already facing severe climate impacts.

Protecting threatened rainforest: specifically preserving areas in most danger from deforestation: forests which sink the most carbon, mangroves and swamps as well as ancient woodlands and wildlife corridors that are vital for preserving biodiversity.

At Cyber we take our environmental responsibilities seriously. In 2025, we set an ambitious goal to reduce our carbon emissions by 5%. Through a wide range of targeted initiatives and careful planning, we are proud to share that we surpassed this target, achieving a 6.5% reduction in overall emissions. 

As part of our continued efforts to minimise our environmental impact, we have chosen to partner with a venue and suppliers who share our commitment to sustainability. The Scottish Event Campus (SEC) in Glasgow is a leader in sustainable event management, guided by its SEC Net Zero 2030 ambition. You can learn more about their environmental initiatives here.

To further support our shared sustainability goals, we are introducing a range of initiatives designed to reduce the environmental impact of this event. We invite all attendees to join us in these efforts by bringing a reusable water bottle and considering more sustainable travel options. Together, we can make a meaningful difference.
