Member engagement and awareness

Across the globe, our members are actively engaged against climate change, both in developing solutions for our clients, and supporting grass-roots initiatives in their communities. These events range from educational initiatives to hands-on environmental activities (for example, sustainable awareness, litter clean up, tree planting, and waste reduction).

Sustainability services and solutions

Across industries and geographies, we help our clients embed sustainability in everything they do, and use the power of data to advance their climate goals and deliver value to stakeholders.

As clients accelerate their digital transformation journeys, integrating sustainability throughout their value chains is a top priority. We partner with them to accelerate sustainability progress through innovation, ecosystem collaboration, enabling technologies and relevant data, and move from aspiration to action.

Sustainable IT

We achieve ongoing reduction of energy consumption and CO₂e emissions through sustainable IT best practices, life cycle assessments, eco-design, eco-label guidelines, dedicated research and development investments on energy and carbon, selecting low-energy subcomponents, and adoption of the circular economy principles.
