[Boston, MA] February 17, 2021 – The global strategy and marketing consultancy Simon-Kucher & Partners has announced its commitment to becoming carbon neutral by the end of 2021. This is part of a broader range of sustainability initiatives to be rolled out by the company globally this year.
“2020 provided us with an opportunity to think about how we could re-define ‘the new normal,’ for our business, in a more sustainable way," said CEO Dr. Andreas von der Gathen. “We’re making a commitment to reduce our footprint with a more sustainable approach to travel and green energy.”
Simon-Kucher will focus on directly reducing its carbon footprint as well as compensating for the remaining carbon emissions.
