Our Commitment to Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion

At MPI New England, we are committed to fostering an inclusive and respectful environment where all individuals—regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, ability, age, socioeconomic status, or any other characteristic—feel welcomed, valued, and empowered. As an association in the events industry, our mission is to support our members through education, connection, and community, and we firmly believe that embracing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) is not just the right thing to do, but a responsible action that strengthens the events we produce and the relationships we cultivate.

We recognize that every person brings a unique perspective, and that our differences enrich the experiences and outcomes of our events. As professionals in the events industry, we are dedicated to continually growing, learning, advocating, and acting to ensure that our practices, events, and policies promote a culture of fairness and respect for all. This commitment is reflected in every aspect of our work, from event planning and design to how we engage with and support our members, partners, and attendees.

We believe that by fostering a community built on inclusivity, mutual respect, and equal opportunity, we will create meaningful experiences that empower all individuals to thrive. As events professionals we are dedicated to ensuring that everyone who participates in our events feels seen, heard, and valued. We pledge to uphold these principles, and we invite all attendees, partners, and stakeholders to join us in this vital journey of creating a more diverse, equitable, and inclusive future for our industry.
