Planet. People. Potential. Everything is iNTTerconnected.

Our Sustainability Ambition.

Our work as a corporate citizen is guided by the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We’ve identified three interconnected themes to which we are dedicating our resources. They are planet, communities and economy.

Connected Planet

Let's make major impact by minimizing it. We're working to protect, restore and regenerate the natural world. Our goal is to conserve resources for generations to come.

Using circular economy principles, we maximize both natural and manmade resources by extending their lifecycle across the value chain. Through our technology solutions we minimize waste and emissions—our own as well as our clients'—to abate the impact of climate change. We're proactively building back biodiversity to reestablish a world in which all can thrive.

Through a materiality assessment we’ve identified three priorities:

Climate change

Reducing our own emissions to net zero, abating our clients’ emissions and proactively responding to climate-related risks.

Circularity

Building circularity and regenerative principles into the way we operate, reducing waste, emissions and water usage across our value chain.

Biodiversity

Using technology to protect the natural world and regenerate ecosystems and oceans.

Our commitment

• We commit to net zero emissions across our operations by 2030 , and across our value chain by 2040.
• We commit to set science-based targets aligned to the 1.5-degree pathway established through the Paris Agreement.
• We drive towards 100% renewable energy across our global data centers by 2030 and offices and facilities by 2035.
• We commit to engaging 50% of our staff in conservation and regenerative initiatives in their local communities by 2025.
• We commit to incorporating circular economy and regenerative design principles across our operations, supply chain and client solutions by 2026.

Connected Economy

Technology is what makes work, work. By breaking barriers and boosting connection, we're creating a fertile environment for growth and innovation. We act transparently and responsibly to build a sustainable, resilient digital future. With a foundation of best-in-class cybersecurity and data protection, organizations have what they need to operate at their best.

Through a materiality assessment we’ve identified three priorities:

Smart solutions

Creating secure digital solutions with our partners to tackle social and environmental issues for clients across multiple sectors.

Private and data security

Ensuring the maximum security and privacy of our solutions, to enable the safe running of services and critical infrastructure.

Ethics, values and governance

Acting transparently and responsibly to build a connected, trusted economy.

Our commitments

• We commit to growing our portfolio of smart solutions to support our clients and partners in reducing 200m tons of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 2026.
• We commit to establishing a Sustainability Innovation Fund, review board and mentorship program to incubate ideas and scale the impact of climate technology and sustainable solutions.

Goal 16: Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions

Connected Communities

Access is everything. We're fulfilling technology's promise as the great equalizer by enabling inclusive, equitable digital opportunity.

From creating schools in areas of need to elevating more women to our own senior leadership team, we're giving voice to the underrepresented. Ultimately, we're working toward a world in which everyone has the means to lead the lives they want to live.

Through a materiality assessment we’ve identified three priorities:

Digital access

Enabling accessible and inclusive connections, to ensure everyone benefits from a digital economy.

Education and upskilling

Facilitating access to education and building skills for the future.

Diversity and inclusion

Building a more diverse and inclusive workforce and world, through targeted efforts with marginalized groups.

Our commitments

• We commit to that by 2025 50% of our workforce will belong to one or more of the following diversity categories: gender, race, sexual orientation, socioeconomic background and disability.
• We commit to doubling the diversity of our executive leadership team, with an emphasis on female representation, by 2025.
• We commit to providing digital access and education to 5 million children and youth from underprivileged areas across the world by 2030.
• We commit to enabling our employees to contribute 1 million volunteer hours by 2025.
