Light bulbs, part of the Trivandi group, have been appointed as sustainability consultant for Invictus Games 2027 in Birmingham.
This appointment supports the game’s ambitious vision of providing meaningful environmental and social impacts while creating a sustainable approach for future host cities.
The two-and-a-half year consultancy, running until September 2027, is led by sustainability director Selina Donald and sustainability consultant Director Megstraal, providing advisory support for former London’s 2012 Sustainability Head David Stubs.
Working closely with the Invictus Games Organising Committee, the bulb will apply award-winning methodology to create a bespoke sustainability strategy unique to Invictus Games 2027.
This comprehensive approach covers much beyond carbon measurements, reducing environmental impacts, positive social outcomes, and sustainable practices that future games can build.
Key deliverables include developing sustainability strategies using smart targets (specific, measurable, attainable, relevance, and time limits), supporting operational implementation plans across all functional areas, social impact plans, procurement consultants, baseline measurements, stakeholder engagement, and supporting comprehensive sustainability and social impact reporting.
A detailed knowledge transfer from Birmingham’s sustainability journey ensures the lasting benefits of future Invictus Games hosts.
The programme is consistent with the ISO 20121:2024 standards, the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, and the sustainability approach of the Invictus Games Foundation. By threading the sustainability, social impact and accessibility of the overall delivery, the game demonstrates how key events in the environment, local community and WIS community can be highly delivered.
“The Bulb Founders Selina Donald and Sustainability Director, Tribandi, said: “This project can demonstrate how sustainability can be incorporated into every aspect of event planning, while having meaningful impact on the environment, the West Midlands community and, most importantly, the injured, injured and sick staff at the heart of these games.”
