MeetGreen Honors Cloud ERP Provider with Highest Sustainability Distinction

BELLEVUE, Wash.: Acumatica, a leading cloud ERP provider, has once again demonstrated its sustainability excellence by earning its third consecutive “Visionary” rating from MeetGreen for its Summit 2025 event. The “Visionary” designation—the highest tier awarded by MeetGreen, a sustainable event management agency—celebrates organizations that lead their industry in sustainable practices and consistently raise the bar for corporate environmental responsibility.

“Earning the ‘Visionary’ rating from MeetGreen three years running is a powerful validation of the tangible steps Acumatica has taken to drive sustainability at our annual Summit event,” said Todd Wells, CMO at Acumatica. “We work tirelessly before, during and after the event to identify ways to minimize the environmental impact. For Acumatica, operational excellence includes environmental responsibility, and we’re proud to lead by example in showing that large-scale events can be both impactful and sustainable.”

MeetGreen defines a “Visionary” organization as prioritizing environmental measurement, developing innovative sustainability initiatives and using its purchasing power to drive positive change with vendors and venues. This rating reflects the accomplishments of a single event, as well as a strategic and sustained commitment to sustainability.

Since 2021, Acumatica has prevented over 15,470 kilograms of waste from entering landfills by using reusables at core meals, equivalent to the weight of a metro bus. Similarly, the company has eliminated 88,596 plastic water bottles. Laid end to end, that’s enough plastic water bottles to stretch more than 10 miles.

“Acumatica continues to make great strides on its event sustainability efforts, and MeetGreen is pleased to recognize Summit 2025 with the highest tier of our MeetGreen Calculator,” said Carmen Douglass, managing director at MeetGreen. “Their team has consistently worked to integrate environmental considerations into the planning and execution of their events.”

Acumatica’s efforts to reduce Summit 2025’s environmental footprint led to measurable and impactful outcomes, including:

• Reduced Emissions: Emissions per person per day dropped by 16% year-over-year, thanks to reduced beef consumption, continued booth and asset reuse and a significant cut in non-recyclable signage.
• Smarter Booths: 100% of booth materials were stored for future use, preventing emissions from disposal and remanufacturing.
• Furniture Reuse: Over 4,000 kilograms of assets were rented or reused to minimize waste.
• Digital-First Experience: On-demand badge printing and 56 digital screens replaced printed programs and reduced waste.
• Reusables at Meals: Reusable serviceware prevented over 2,880 kilograms of waste and 55.8 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent.
• Plastic-Free Hydration: By avoiding plastic water bottles, the team prevented the production of approximately 20,000 bottles, saving about 7,400 kilograms of carbon dioxide equivalent.

Acumatica’s commitment to sustainability goes beyond events. The company is also proud to maintain its Climate Label certification. This recognition is awarded to organizations that actively measure and reduce greenhouse gas emissions across their operations and events.

Looking ahead to Summit 2026 at the Seattle Convention Center, Acumatica is excited to build on its sustainability success by bringing its environmental tracking and community impact initiatives to a new venue. The company is poised to deliver another community-driven, environmentally responsible event that sets a high bar for sustainable business gatherings by continuing tried-and-true practices such as asset reuse, local sourcing and freight reduction.

“Sustainability isn’t a means to an end – it’s a way of life and a way of doing business,” added Wells. “Through every Summit, we’re redefining what’s possible for environmentally conscious events and proving that business innovation and climate leadership can go hand in hand.”
