In a demonstration of its commitment to philanthropy and social impact, International Convention Centre Sydney (ICC Sydney), managed by ASM Global, has recognised its charity clients at its inaugural appreciation luncheon yesterday
The event follows a bumper year for ICC Sydney where charity and not for profit organisations declared at least A$7.1 million in funds raised through events hosted at the venue for a diversity of worthy causes.
ICC Sydney has consistently demonstrated its commitment and capacity to drive positive benefits to the community through a robust Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) strategy, including its pioneering, multi-streamed client Legacy Program, all informed by the ASM Global ACTS framework, United Nations Sustainable Development Goals and relevant global, national and local strategic policies and legislation.
ICC Sydney’s Legacy Program is part of its suite of corporate social responsibility resources that supports corporate, association, government, charity and not for profit event organisers to leave a lasting environmental and social legacy long after the conclusion of an event.
ICC Sydney’s Director of Corporate Affairs, Communication and Sustainability, Samantha Glass said the venue’s industry leading Legacy Program had the potential to help organisers to deepen their efforts to make a difference through their events.
“Our strong sense of purpose is reflected in ICC Sydney’s Legacy Program. Through the program we support our clients to tackle the world’s biggest challenges, build capacity within our communities, create new opportunities for emerging talent to thrive alongside working towards net zero carbon emission goals.
ICC Sydney Senior Manager, Business Development – Corporate, Government and Events, Gabriella Alberici said: “It was a pleasure to host our Charity clients who work tirelessly to raise awareness and much needed funds for people in need in our community.
“Our guests enjoyed hearing about ICC Sydney’s Legacy Program, and particularly our edible centrepieces which were on display to be re-purposed into delicious meals by our culinary team for the Mathew Talbot Hostel. To witness their excitement at our culinary offering, matched by our 100% New South Wales wines was heartwarming and we look forward to welcoming them back to ICC Sydney in the future,” Ms Alberici said.
