Sustainability Requires Collaboration: Akamai's Growing Community and Supply Chain Initiatives

February 9, 2021 EcoVadis EN


 Akamai is committed to collaboration that inspires worldwide change. We know it’s not enough to be environmentally conscious solely in our own business. To make a true impact on climate change, we need to use our unique position as a global corporation to encourage our partners to join us in taking sustainable action, participating in community improvement projects, and engaging in climate education. We need to consider the question: “How much more can we do for the betterment of the environment with help from our stakeholders?”

For the past five years, Akamai has focused on making our platform more efficient, enhanced by investments in renewable energy to offset our emissions. Our edge network continues to be our main priority, but we recognize that we can take action that benefits more than our own business! To truly make a difference, we need to create awareness and encourage dialogue among our stakeholders on the benefits of collaboration within sustainability itself. That is why we have expanded our sustainability programming to include even more programs tied to the community and supply chain.
