VRMA Sustainability Efforts

VRMA is committed to incorporating sustainable practices at our events hosted throughout the year.

Through partnering with green hotels and convention centers, or working with local organizations, VRMA is committed to not only furthering sustainability efforts within our own organization but also spreading awareness and educating others about the impact those efforts can have on the broader community.
