On 13th March 2025, we hosted a Sustainability Kiosk Networking Iftar at Rove La Mer, Dubai, bringing together hospitality leaders, sustainability advocates, and industry partners in an intimate and engaging setting.
It was a fantastic opportunity to reconnect, exchange ideas — all over a shared meal.
A highlight of the evening was our Sustainability Quiz, which sparked lively conversations—kudos to our new marketing in-charge Mariam Karim for making it such a hit! We heard some great answers and some unique ones too (makeshift handheld rubbish compactor, anyone?!).
Key Moments from the Evening:
🔹 The Reality of ESG in Hospitality: Solution providers shared their challenges in breaking into the hospitality industry—one of the biggest hurdles remains commercial prioritisation. ESG solutions often get pushed back due to cost concerns, but hasn’t the ROI improved over the years?
What are your thoughts?
🔹 The “Small Council” Pre-Iftar Meeting: We also held a closed-door discussion with hoteliers on creating a collaborative platform for sustainability in UAE hospitality—a space to connect, share best practices, and drive real change together. Stay tuned, exciting updates coming soon!
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us! Your presence, passion, and insights make these gatherings truly valuable.
If you attended, what was your biggest takeaway? Drop it in the comments—we’d love to hear from you!
