We are Creative Meetings
With a high level of commitment we create, project manage and deliver meetings and events with a focus on B2B and B2E. Since we are ”borderless” we follow our clients wherever they want to meet their audience, both physically and digitally.
We do this because our clients’ meetings and events are our passion. We do everything we can to make our client a hero at their workplace. We do this by carefully and efficiently preparing, planning, producing and implementing meetings and events together with our clients and our suppliers – as a team throughout the entire process.
The ultimate proof that we have succeeded is a happy and returning client. And of course, having employees who stay in the company for a long time is a huge part of our success. We are a family that stay together.

Our responsibility & sustainability
For us at Creative Meetings, it is important to strive for a sustainable present and future. When living in a world that is constantly changing in many ways, it is important to sometimes slow down and reflect. For us as individuals it can sometimes feel like what we do has no effect – but if we all act, we can all make an impact.
SBTi
The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is a corporate climate action organization that enables companies and financial institutions worldwide to play their part in combating the climate crisis. SBTi develops standards, tools and guidance to help organizations set science-based targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions in line with what is needed to limit global warming and achieve net-zero emissions by 2050.
Creative Meetings is proud to be the first event agency in Sweden to join the SBTi.
New for 2024:
CARBON OFFSETTING INCLUDED IN ALL EVENTS
Starting November 2024, all our events will include carbon offsetting. In collaboration with Klimatkompensera.se, we will calculate the climate impact of each event, select a project to finance, and receive certification upon completion.
Carbon offsetting is one of the simplest and most cost-effective solutions to reduce global climate impact and meet the goals of the Paris Agreement. Reducing our carbon footprint while funding climate solutions goes hand in hand.
Since 2019, we have offset the emissions from our own operations.
OUR WORKPLACE
At Creative Meetings, we are committed to fostering an inclusive and dynamic workplace where everyone can thrive. We ensure equal treatment for all, regardless of gender, ethnicity, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, or gender identity. Together, we strive to create a safe and supportive environment for everyone.
In the office we sort our waste and recycle the materials we use. When purchasing new office materials, we select products that are eco and fairtrade certified to ensure the products are better from a sustainability perspective.
Every year we perform a climate report that gives us an overview of the business’s climate impact and a basis for us to reduce our impact. The climate report is based on the GHG Protocol Standards and include greenhouse emissions from business travel, energy and office materials.
RONALD MCDONALD CHILDREN’S FUND
In conjunction with each event, we charge a nominal fee that is donated to Ronald McDonald Children's fund on behalf of the client. In addition to this we also donate an amount of money after each finalized project.

The Podcast Eventpodden
Do you listen to podcasts? In addition to events, we think it is the second-most fun thing there is. Especially “Eventpodden” hosted by our good friend Jonas and our colleague Carl.
They talk to people with a lot of knowledge from the event industry. If you listen to all episodes you will learn more about everything from which destinations that are the best, to how a conference moderator thinks and how to create sustainable event menus.
