We commit to social impact In October 2023, our early social impact work including our decade long Beyond Tourism Benefits research was recognised winning the inaugural Global Destination Sustainability Movement (GDS-Movement) and #MEET4IMPACT Impact Award for destination management organisations committed to legacy and impact through business events. We have appointed a dedicated Social Impact Specialist who is leading the charge on building capacity across the Sydney business events ecosystem, engaging stakeholders outside of our traditional networks and formalising our BESydney and client measurement framework. BESydney has also joined Social Impact Measurement Network Australia (SIMNA) as a member. In June 2024 the BESydney team was awarded the Destinations International Organisational Leadership Award for Global Impact for its Change Starts Here Agenda. And we invite our clients to join us on this journey. Dreamtime Southern X Sydney, credit: Destination NSW
