Bett & Hyve are committed to redefining sustainability within the event industry and within education. At Bett 2022 and all year long, we use our influence to educate, empower and drive positive change across the sector we work with.
Bett Environmental, Social and Governance initiatives
Going paperless
- We reduced our onsite printing and collateral, instead we’ll use cloud-based storage solution and iPads
- We encouraged all sponsors to go paperless where possible, including switching from seat-drop collateral to QR codes
- We're no longer offering delegate bags to reduce waste and printing requirements
Community Food Enterprise
After Bett, ExCeL London donated surplus food and furniture to the CFE, who share these items across local community projects throughout the London Borough of Newham.
FareShare
This year, we made a donation on behalf of every speaker who took part in Bett to the FareShare charity. For each speaker, we contributed to deliver the equivalent of 40 meals to families and children in need.
LetsLocalise
A unique, multi-sided digital platform, free for schools, built on an ambition of helping 1 million state school pupils across the country. Their platform has already helped significantly in creating stronger, healthier, connected communities.
Onsite @ the ExCeL
- ExCeL have swapped their light fittings for LED eco-friendly lighting (provided by Philips). The energy consumption saving is 70% per fitting
- ExCeL have water fountains, reducing the need to buy plastic bottles
- This year we have repurposed some structural elements in our features to help reduce single use builds
Speakers & Content Partners
We work hard to ensure that our programme is a platform to support the provision of equal access to high quality education so that all learners can fulfil their potential and that the curriculum is truly inclusive and representative.

SEND Friday: SEND covers a broad spectrum of student learning difficulties and are grouped in the following areas:
- communication and interaction difficulties
- cognition and learning
- social, emotional and mental health needs
- physical and sensory needs.
Bett has programmed a series of talks with a SEND and Inclusion at their heart. On Friday 25 March there was a concentration of CPD sessions and keynote talks, covering K12 through to HE and beyond.
- There was also a SEND and Inclusion Trail to guide you around the show floor to discover specific products and suppliers.
