We’ve partnered with Fifty Shades Greener
News|by Alanna|21 March 2025

We're excited to announce our partnership with Fifty Shades Greener, a respected sustainability educator, as part of our ongoing commitment to promote sustainability in our industry. This collaboration marks a significant milestone in our journey towards integrating sustainable practices into our business operations and decision-making processes.
The first step in our journey is the creation of our very first sustainability statement, which sets out our pathway towards a greener future.
Our path forward
Our partnership with Fifty Shades Greener will help us to implement several key actions to reduce our carbon footprint and promote sustainability:
Energy and Carbon Emissions Reduction: We’ll measure, manage, and monitor our energy needs, conduct energy audits, and develop a plan to reduce our carbon footprint.
Circular Economy and Resource Management: We’ll conduct lifecycle assessments of all sourced hardware, promote responsible e-waste management, and implement circular economy principles where possible.
Data Privacy, Cybersecurity, and Ethical AI: We’ll uphold data privacy, ensure robust cybersecurity frameworks, and align our AI use cases with regulatory requirements.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion: We’ll measure our current position in DEI, review and strengthen DEI policies, and leverage assistive technologies to create an inclusive digital environment.
Supply Chain Responsibility: We’ll engage in responsible sourcing, collaborate with vendors to uphold high ESG standards, and develop a supplier’s code of ethics.
Over the coming months, we’ll create a step-by-step action plan with key milestones. As much as we’d love to fast-forward to NetZero, we’ve heard there’s a small thing called Scope 3 emissions we need to conquer first.
Join us on the journey
This initiative isn’t a solo project, we’ll engage with all of our stakeholders to ensure we meet our environmental and social responsibilities while driving long-term business success.
Stay tuned for updates as we continue to progress and complete the different phases of our gap analysis and materiality assessment.
Together, we can make a lasting positive impact on our planet for our people.
