Sustainability

Building strong,
sustainable societies

Acting as a responsible IT partner, we are committed to making a meaningful difference in society, businesses, the environment, and our common future.

Material sustainability areas

Priorities related to model and strategy

As an IT service company, our main impacts, risks, and opportunities are within our own operations, especially concerning our workforce and the resources used in our data centres. We rely on essential equipment and services from both our suppliers (upstream) and data centre operations (downstream) to deliver value and support responsible digitalisation across Europe.

Our key business relationships involve hardware and software suppliers (upstream) and data centre suppliers (downstream). These components, along with our employees, are fundamental to our strategy and business model.

Our key focus areas include:

  • Our carbon emissions and energy mix
  • Resource use and circular economy
  • Environmental certifications
  • Our people
  • Civil society and end-users
  • Governance and business conduct

Engaging with stakeholders

Our key stakeholders include internal and external parties who help us create value and for whom we generate value. These include our workforce, private and public sector clients, EU partners, investors, civil society and end-users, and suppliers and business partners. Maintaining continuous stakeholder dialogue informs our strategic decisions and daily operations in areas such as employee training and development, DEI initiatives, our methodology and delivery model, customer engagement, environmental efforts, procurement practices, and strategic partnerships. Each stakeholder group has unique needs and perspectives. Our goal is to stay informed and act on opportunities and risks identified through our engagement and dialogue with key stakeholders.

Engagement with our key stakeholders occurs through a mix of informal interactions and formal structures, such as collecting feedback and insights from experts within and outside our organisation.

Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive

The Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) is a regulatory framework established by the EU to enhance and standardise sustainability reporting among companies, effective from the financial year 2024. Our journey to prepare for and comply with the CSRD has been crucial in optimising and developing our business processes and enhancing our understanding of what is critical for Netcompany’s short-, medium- and long-term success.

In 2024, we expanded on our previous year’s Double Materiality Assessments (DMA) to identify the material sustainability matters to our business and value chain. We implemented a more structured approach to CSRD reporting by standardising our data collection and establishing processes for analysing and controlling data.

In accordance with the 2024 DMA, we report on the following topics in addition to the EU Taxonomy:

  • General disclosures
  • Climate change
  • Water and marine resources
  • Resource use and circular economy
  • Environmental certifications specific to our business
  • Own workforce
  • Consumers and end-users
  • Business conduct
