Sustainable economic growth

Until recently, corporate sustainability efforts have tended to focus on community investment, mitigating risks and reducing an organisation’s social and environmental impacts. This work is essential but is only one part of the story.

Tackling the world’s sustainability challenges requires change on a huge scale. We believe the most significant contribution we can make is to deliver ICT products and services that help our customers become more sustainable. This supports our commitment to responsible business and our long-term commercial growth.

Our sustainable economic growth programme has two, equally important elements:

• Innovation – seeking out new long-term commercial opportunities to create a more sustainable world
• Integration – making sure that sustainability is embedded into our key business processes and becomes business as usual
