In our pursuit to enhance our social and environmental footprint, we enrolled in the Swiss Triple Impact (STI) program in 2020, an initiative by B Lab Switzerland. Leveraging the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as a guiding framework, the STI enables Swiss businesses to quantify their SDG contributions, thereby elevating their sustainable development performance.
Utilizing this foundation, we identified and prioritized SDGs paramount to our business and developed a comprehensive action plan. These objectives underwent an eligibility review process wherein B Lab Switzerland assessed the impact and relevance of each sustainability commitment and the associated action plan. Such diligent procedures have culminated in our listing in the STI Directory.
