The companies in a statement said that "more than 12,000 hotels and venues" had already begun to share sustainability information through Cvent's meeting supplier platform, derived from Copenhagen-based BeCause, a firm that assists hotels and other suppliers with sustainability data standardisation and reporting, among other features.
BeCause CCO Jahanzeeb Ahmed in a statement said the move was designed to assist hotels to streamline the "often highly manual" process of collecting, organising and sharing sustainability data when competing for group business.
Cvent VP of product management at Cvent Jim Abramson in a statement said the partnership was "a direct result of our commitment to listening to and acting on planner and hotelier feedback."
Without indicating a development timeline, the companies added that they plan to automate BeCause sustainability information into hotel responses to requests for proposals issued through Cvent's tools.?
