Headquartered in Switzerland, Infinigate has over 1,500 employees across Europe, the Middle East, and Australia and New Zealand.

Infinigate recognises that the responsibility of a company towards its stakeholders, as well as the environment, begins with our core principles and how we conduct our business. As we grow so does our ESG agenda and over the past year we have continued to mature by embedding ESG into our governance.

This policy describes the Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) framework that informs the standard for our operations and how we interact with our stakeholders, outlines our current state of ESG practices and our commitments for continuous development in the year ahead.

1.1 Infinigate’s ESG Framework

ESG must be at the core of Infinigate’s mission to be the leading technology platform and trusted advisor in Cybersecurity, Cloud & Network Infrastructure. Infinigate recognises that responsible corporate behaviour not only mitigates risks but also strengthens the long-term resilience of our operations and that of our partners, customers and the communities we operate within. Infinigate are on the journey of taking its ESG agenda beyond compliance, delivering positive value and impact to stakeholders across our business and extended value chain.

With reference to the image below, the Ten Principles of the UN Global Compact (UNGC) serve as the foundation of the Infinigate ESG framework. The United Nations Global Compact is an international strategic policy initiative that prompts organisations around the world to operate in a manner that meets the fundamental needs for human rights, labour, environment, and anti-corruption. By implementing the Ten Principles of the UNGC, we not only strive to comply with the responsibilities towards our employees, the protection of our planet and our community, but also create the foundation for our long-term success.
