"Different. Complement. Development."
RX Tradex believes that diversity and differences in opinions, cultures, and personal identities are valuable powers that drive growth. That is why our events are designed to be open platforms where people from various businesses, organizations, and backgrounds can equally access contents and express personal ideas that can complement one another through activities and media at the shows. A place where everyone can take part in developing oneself, their businesses, industries, and economies.
At RX, we are serious about sustainability. We are founding members of the Net Zero Carbon Events pledge to make our company, our shows and the wider events industry net zero. We commit to being Net Zero by 2040 and to make a 50% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.
Our pathway to net zero sets out our reduction strategy with key milestones for all our shows. Given the complex nature of our supply chain and the emissions associated with a show, it is only by working together as an industry that we will be able to reduce our impact. We are building a company of net zero heroes to take action and ensure a sustainable future.
