The EMAS Club Europe which was established by VNU in 2012 serves – via its regular meetings of the five regional groups – as a platform for the exchange of information and discussions for EMAS registered organisations.
Every year we offer the Environmental- and Sustainability Manager Day (jointly with our annual general assembly) in Frankfurt / Main, the Environmental Verifier Day in changing locations and since 2015 the VNU Symposium for Sustainable Management Systems.
