Tata Consultancy Services Premium Sponsor of the European SDG Summit 2021

Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) – a leading global IT services, consulting, and business solutions organization – will be premium sponsor of the European SDG Summit 2021, taking place on 11 - 14 October.

In this fourth edition, CSR Europe will bring together business leaders, European policymakers, and civil society organisations in 30 virtual sessions aimed at shaping a climate-neutral, socially just, competitive Europe. At the event, TCS aims to highlight the crucial role of technology in stimulating innovation that is required to help Europe meet its CO2 targets by 2030 and essential for building a greener and more sustainable Europe.

“Giving back to society has been one of TCS’ core values since we started our business. For the present generation, there is nothing more crucial than realizing the fundamental shift towards a sustainable society”, said Sapthagiri Chapalapalli, Head – TCS Europe. “We believe that this fundamental shift is not only a mindset. We need technology, innovation, and practical solutions that will enable businesses, organisations, and people to actually live and work in a more sustainable and purposeful way. We are keen to provide our knowledge and bring in our ecosystem of partners, academia, and start-ups to help make this possible.”

To promote sustainable business initiatives across communities, TCS is leveraging its European Innovation Network that enables access to intellectual, technology, financial, and business resources. As part of that, TCS recently launched TCS Pace in Europe, bringing together an ecosystem of partners from academia, government institutions, start-ups, and technology providers to co-innovate with European customers and boost sustainable development in Europe.

In June 2021, TCS announced plans to globally reduce 70 percent of its absolute greenhouse gas emissions across Scope 1 and Scope 2, by 2025; and to achieve net-zero emissions by 2030.
