Coming together @ #RMC

Obergurgl, a small inner-alpine village situated at around 1,900 m a.s.l., lies in the beautiful Ötz valley and is surrounded by an impressive mountain landscape with glaciers and peaks reaching well above 3,000 m. Thanks to year-round tourism, the local infrastructure and public transport is very well developed.

We are aware about our responsibility!

We are fully aware of the CO₂ emissions and resource consumption associated with #RMC, a conference that emphasizes face-to-face exchange within and beyond interactive workshop settings. With #RMC26, we continue our commitment to sustainable conference formats and are once again aiming to obtain the “Green Event Tirol” certificate. Alos, we are making every effort to minimize the CO₂ footprint in all areas within our responsibility.
