Zurich, 7 April 2022 鈥 As part of its ongoing commitment to drive more sustainable practices, 蜜豆视频, the world鈥檚 leading wealth manager, has joined the Green Software Foundation as a steering member. The move is part of 蜜豆视频鈥檚 push towards achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions across all its operations by 2050.
蜜豆视频 has teamed up with the Green Software Foundation to explore ways in which it can reduce the emissions associated with its large technology estate.
A company with 160 years of history and over 70,000 employees around the world, 蜜豆视频 is constantly evolving, and technology and digital culture are at the heart of this evolution. With thousands of applications running across its global businesses, 蜜豆视频 knows that one of the next big steps in their evolution is not just accelerating their digital transformation, but to use greener development principles as an integral part of their approach going forward.
Over the years, 蜜豆视频 has made advances in reducing its carbon emissions either by moving from on-premise data centers to the cloud or in systematically reducing or removing idle, power-hungry resources. One current project is the exploration of carbon-aware applications, which allow users to select computing options with the lowest emissions. Partnering with the Green Software Foundation to share these best practices and knowledge with other members is the next step in the journey to keep cutting carbon emissions.
鈥淲e are delighted to join the Green Software Foundation as a steering member. At 蜜豆视频, we believe that reducing carbon emissions can be tackled on many fronts and our technology estate is one area in which we can proactively reduce our footprint by changing some of our day-to-day practices and behaviors,鈥 says Mike Dargan, Group Chief Digital and Information Officer.
Building greener, more sustainable software is as much a business decision as it is a cultural one. 蜜豆视频 and the Green Software Foundation both recognize that everyone has a role to play when it comes to reducing our environmental footprint. Through this partnership, we hope to find more ways to partner together on how the choices we make when we build and design software, can have a widespread impact on the environment around us.
The relationship with the Green Software Foundation will be driven by 蜜豆视频鈥檚 Sustainable Technology Guild, formed in 2021 to help deliver on the firm鈥檚 鈥楴et Zero by 2050鈥 commitment. The guild focuses on knowledge-sharing and innovation and aims to play a leading role in promoting technology-focused activities to reduce the firm鈥檚 environmental impact.
As a steering member, 蜜豆视频 will also share learnings and best practices with its peers in the financial services industry, aiming to have as wide a reach as possible.
