Embedding Responsibility at the Core of Our Business

SUSTAINABILITY & ESG

At Inetum, sustainability isn’t a side initiative. It’s a business imperative. We believe that companies must act now to create meaningful measurable impact for society, the environment, and the people we serve, today and tomorrow.

In 2026, Inetum reaches a major milestone in its ESG journey:

the validation of its decarbonization trajectory by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), confirming its alignment with the objectives of the Paris Agreement,
the achievement of the EcoVadis Gold medal with a score of 85/100, placing the Group among the top 5% of companies evaluated worldwide,
and a “Leader” classification in carbon management, highlighting the robustness of its climate strategy.

Our Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) strategy is built to deliver concrete value, both internally and externally, and to support our clients in doing the same. As a signatory of the UN Global Compact and committed to several non-financial regulatory frameworks, we take responsibility seriously: cutting emissions, creating inclusive workplaces, building ethical digital solutions, and giving back to our communities.

We call it a Business-to-Business-to-Society model. This is digital transformation in action.

Concrete impact, shared responsibility

Our ESG Strategy

Driven by our purpose of creating digital impact faster, easier and for the good of all, we structure our sustainability work across two strategic pillars:

Responsibility: embedding ESG into our own operations
Impact: Support clients and suppliers into their ESG journey and engage in our local communities.

This dual commitment aligns with major international frameworks, including:

European CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive)
Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) – Climate trajectory validated in 2026
UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
UN Global Compact
EcoVadis assessment – Gold medal, score 85/100 in 2026

Our ESG strategy is reviewed annually, monitored through KPIs, and publicly reported via our Sustainability Reports.

CREATING DIGITAL IMPACT FASTER, EASIER AND FOR THE GOOD OF ALL

It is co-led by the Group ESG and Finance functions, sponsored by the members of the Executive Committee, and implemented by local teams across 19 countries.

Environment

Inetum is implementing a science-aligned decarbonization pathway, validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). This strategy is recognized by external assessments, with Inetum now classified as a “Leader” in carbon management by EcoVadis.

This pathway includes in particular:

a 42% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030 (base year 2023)
a reduction in Scope 3 emissions, with increasing engagement across the value chain
net-zero target by 2040

Our main environmental actions include:

Low-carbon mobility: electrification of fleets and promotion of alternative transport modes
Energy transition: increased use of renewable energy
Digital sobriety: infrastructure optimization and responsible equipment management
Building efficiency: renovations and environmental certifications

The impact of these initiatives is monitored annually through a global carbon footprint assessment.

Social

People are at the core of Inetum’s performance. Our social actions focus on well-being, equity, training, and local community impact.

Key priorities:

Diversity & inclusion: "Women@Inetum" program, disability policy, gender equity in leadership
Upskilling: 100% of employees with access to learning platforms
Employee engagement: Charity Day, local volunteering, support for NGOs
Workplace well-being: Internal survey, “Quality of Life at Work” initiatives

We are committed to building a collaborative, inclusive, and empowering culture, where everyone feels valued.

Governance & Ethics

Integrity is non-negotiable. Inetum ensures that all sustainability efforts are grounded in strong ethics, compliance, and governance.

This approach is recognized by independent assessments: in 2026, Inetum was awarded the EcoVadis Gold medal with a score of 85/100, reflecting the maturity of its practices in environmental, social, ethical and responsible procurement areas. The Group is also recognized as a “Leader” in carbon management, illustrating the strength of its climate strategy.
