We commit

Magnifying the most beautiful creator and brand stories through events that are sensitive to social and environmental issues and embody our avant-garde creative vision.

A new way of doing things.

At VILLA EUGÉNIE, we have our sights firmly set on the future, one that’s deeply human and connected. For us, the emotion and magic of a singular moment must stand the test of time to take on real meaning. We create unique bespoke events that tell a story, that of our clients. Events that bring their values to light and leave a lasting impression.

We know how rare these moments are and rarer still, the resources that make them possible, which is why we’re committed to putting our expertise and awareness at the service of a new, sustainable creativity.

In 2024, VILLA EUGÉNIE achieved ISO 20121 certification, formalizing our approach to responsible event management and reinforcing our ambition to set new standards for the industry.

. From the birth of an idea to its execution, we create a responsible roadmap that thinks about the after.

Because the memory of a beautiful event should be the only imprint that remains.

To that end, we developed Conscious Shows: Four pillars on which our responsible offer rests and from which our clients can draw upon, enabling us to conceive and produce the most ethical events possible, together:

• EQUALITY FOR ALL
• REDUCED EMISSIONS
• CIRCULARITY & RENEWABILITY
• BIODIVERSITY

We stand together.

Acting on a social level, we provide our clients with a list of committed suppliers such as ESATs, temporary employment agencies or catering service providers with professional reintegration programs.

Think local, think green. Measure and offset.

Our aim is to make meaningful moves towards carbon neutrality whilst mitigating unavoidable emissions as much as possible through things such as carbon credits or by planting trees.

But first and foremost, we are constantly looking at ways to lower our environmental impact and offer our clients the possibility to use green generators, environmentally friendly logistic solutions, and local suppliers.

Reduce. Reuse. Recycle.

Using recyclable carpets and brushed cotton. Limiting the use of polyene and reusing backstage furniture. Pooling of supplies. Implementing selective sorting after our events. Partnering with non-profit organisations such as La Réserve des Arts… We tend to a virtuous circle and continuously strive to improve our practices.

It’s in our nature.

From eco-designed materials with limited chemical treatments and wood from certified forests to committed catering partners that use mostly organic seasonal produce in short circuit, we consciously source and procure products and services for our operations in an ethical, sustainable, and socially conscious way.

Loyalty, creativity and sensitivity are what we have defined as our core values in our mission statement.

AMBITIONS & ACTIONS

For more than a decade, the interface between nature and business has been an important focus for us.

We've captured the complexity of sustainable production through a 12-month analysis, and sustainably produced events are a significant part of our activities, totaling 45% of our operations in 2023 and 47% in 2024. So it was an obvious decision to make ambitious commitments to innovate and improve our way of doing things; it's not only important to be accountable for all our impacts, but also to ensure the resilience of event production for the future. We've now moved from commitments to a tailored offering, the Conscious Shows, and clear priorities for addressing sustainability in and beyond our own supply chains. We committed to having 50% of our activities classified as Conscious Shows by the end of 2025, a target we have met. This milestone was supported by the implementation of the ISO 20121 standard, certified in 2024, and by ongoing monitoring of industry innovations through our CSR committee. Villa Eugénie is committed to deploying the human, technical and financial resources required to implement this corporate social responsibility approach as part of a continuous improvement process and in compliance with the law. All this within the framework of the 4 principles of sustainable development which are the duty of Inclusion, duty of Transparency, duty of Vigilance and duty of Integrity.
