Dassault Systèmes (Euronext Paris: FR0014003TT8, DSY.PA)
(Paris:DSY) today announced it has been included in the Dow Jones
Sustainability Indices for the first time, ranking fifth in the
software industry. The DJSI is one of the world’s foremost
assessments of the sustainability practices of global companies in
terms of environmental, social, and governance and economic
criteria.
Dassault Systèmes performed in the 97th percentile out of 181
companies in the software industry in the S&P Global Corporate
Sustainability Assessment, scoring 100 – the highest score possible
– on material issues such as climate change strategy, social
reporting, codes of conduct and tax strategy.
“Our strategic ambition is to become the trusted and leading
partner for reinventing a sustainable economy. Virtual technology
was born for sustainability: it was first used in industry for
virtual prototyping, for doing things right the first time while
saving materials and resources, capitalizing knowledge and
know-how, and improving environmental handprints. The greatest
power of the virtual world lies in unleashing imagination, in
enabling people to imagine differently, and growing our handprint.
Sustainability is all about life cycle, about connecting the dots.
Offering a multi-scale, multi-discipline, holistic and inclusive
approach to innovation, virtual platforms provide an inspiration
for new sustainable offerings. In addition, we experience the
change and implement meaningful ESG actions across the
organization. The Science Based Targets initiative approved our
ambitious greenhouse gas emissions targets, thus reducing our
footprint,” said Florence Verzelen, Executive Vice President,
Industry, Marketing & Sustainability, Dassault Systèmes. “We
are delighted to see these achievements recognized by the
prestigious Dow Jones Sustainability Index, entering for the very
first time as the fifth strongest performer in our industry
globally.”
"We congratulate Dassault Systèmes for being included in the Dow
Jones Sustainability World Index,” said Manjit Jus, Global Head of
ESG Research, S&P Global. “A DJSI distinction is a reflection
of being a sustainability leader in your industry. The record
number of companies participating in the 2021 S&P Global
Corporate Sustainability Assessment is testament to the growing
movement for ESG disclosure and transparency."
