Broward County Convention Center’s sustainability goal is to ensure a safe and healthy atmosphere for our valued guests. We have successfully implemented several green initiatives throughout our facility, with ongoing efforts to introduce new and innovative programs to conserve and repurpose our resources. 

In accordance with the Center’s LEED Gold certification, we encourage all our meeting planners and exhibition organizers to “think green” during the planning stage and execution of their events.

Creating Better Environments

Broward County Convention Center's management company, Legends Global, is committed to sustainability, diversity, and community with its Global Acts initiative in an effort to keep creating better workplaces, a diverse workforce, and beautiful local communities.

The broad goals and commitments of the Global Acts initiative are:

Protecting the Environment – Reducing waste from the guest experience across our venues, enhancing facility efficiency through capital investments, and protecting and preserving resources in and around our communities.

Investing in People – Creating an environment of inclusion and gender equity across our organization, growing the diversity of our business partners around the world, and enabling opportunities for our current and future workforce.

Strengthening Our Communities – Engaging in improving the vitality of our communities, increasing philanthropic support through meaningful efforts, and enhancing the health and well-being of our coworkers, clients, and guests.

The Global Acts initiative has established annual targets that measure impact and progress to achieving these commitments.

The Global Acts Foundation will support philanthropic and community-based endeavors guided by its sustainability and diversity pillars. In addition, the Global Acts Scholarship will focus on serving diverse and under-resourced communities with educational and career-development opportunities.

“Whether you are a performer on our stages, a technician, hospitality team member, or visitor to our venue, we all have the ability to work together and harness our collective action to make the world a better place. Legends Global is inspired by and dedicated to making a meaningful difference in our communities and beyond.”
