Welcome to our community of business leaders

Collaboration is essential if we want to discover more innovative ways to support corporate sustainability and contribute to the UN goals for a greener, fairer tomorrow. That’s why we want to start a sustainability discussion with global business leaders, so we can share insights and best practice with each other. You can help shape the conversation by telling us which topics are most relevant to your business.

Why are Sustainable Development Goals important for your business?

In 2015, world leaders agreed to 17 goals designed to end poverty, fight inequality, address climate change and create a better world by 2030. Find out more about them here.

All companies play a critical role in meeting the challenges of building a more sustainable future. It’s also an opportunity to enhance innovation and transformation that creates both economic and social value, making a truly better world for everyone.

How is Konica Minolta working towards the SDGs?

In 2009, we formulated our Eco Vision 2050 – a long-term plan to achieve a sustainable future.

It’s based on our corporate philosophy and consists of three major targets:

1. A global goal to reduce CO2 emissions by 80% throughout the product lifecycle by 2050 compared to 2005. Cooperate with stakeholders to achieve CO2 emission reductions greater than product lifecycle, emissions, and realize Carbon Minus status

2. To promote recycling and efficient use of the Earth’s limited resources

3. Work to promote restoration and preservation of biodiversity
