Compensate your CO2 emission share

We know we play our part in the biggest challenge of our generation; creating an international event with visitors from all over the globe leaves a mark on the environment. To minimise our carbon offset, and together with KLM, we’re compensating the expected share of the CO2 emissions of the conference speakers and panelists flying to Amsterdam through the KLM CO2 impact programme. When booking your KLM flight through their website, we give you the opportunity to reduce your carbon offset. With the reduction of your expected share of your flight’s CO2 emissions, traveling with the Official Flight Partner of ADE is a swift start of your trip to Amsterdam.
