Our Commitment to a Better World

Our dedication to inclusivity, community, safety, and sustainability underscores our mission to create memorable experiences that leave a positive and lasting impact on the world around us. Responsibility is one of our T.R.U.E. core values, and we take our commitment to the community and the environment seriously.

Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging

We believe that diverse perspectives drive innovation and excellence. GES fosters an inclusive workplace where every individual, regardless of their background, feels valued and empowered. We are dedicated to equitable opportunities, actively working to eliminate biases, and championing diversity in our recruitment and development practices. Our inclusive culture not only strengthens our team, it also enhances our ability to develop unique ideas as we continually create new solutions and opportunities for our clients.

GES is committed to creating a safe and secure work environment in the office, at events, on the exhibit showroom floor, and every place in between. We adhere to the highest standards of safety in all our operations and work with companies across many industries to ensure that when on a job site, safety protocols are in line and agreed upon to establish safe and productive events. We work to maintain a LOW global reportable incident rate every year.

Governance

There are many ways to view established processes and controls – we believe they represent a promise that we make to ourselves, our clients, our employees, and our shareholders about how we conduct our business and interact with each other. We strive to exemplify strong corporate citizenship, inspired by our core values, mission, and purpose.
