# Helping you measure, understand and reduce your events’ impact

Petit Duc is an eco-conscious platform that simplifies data collection and report writing with credibility and transparency. We transform every event into an engine of sustainable change.

Our Journey

## The Story of Petit Duc

**We noticed a problem.** Most event organizers wanted to reduce their environmental impact but lacked reliable tools to understand where emissions were coming from.

**We started with transportation.** Participant travel represents the largest source of emissions for many events. Improving this one area creates meaningful impact quickly.

**We’re building something bigger.** Transportation is just the first step toward a platform that helps organizers measure, improve, and communicate sustainability across every stage of an event.

## Our vision for events

Becoming a powerful driver of social and ecological transition by inspiring participants, partners and organizations to adopt more sustainable practices.

Our Mission

Helping event organizers measure, understand and reduce their environmental impact with simple, transparent tools.

“We created Petit Duc because sustainability should not be an added burden for event organizers—it should be an integral part of every decision. Our goal is to give teams the clarity and confidence they need to create events that are better for people, better for the planet and, ultimately, better for everyone.”
