Kotsovolos takes a significant step in its strategic journey towards sustainable development, integrating its actions into the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) – the UN’s leading initiative for corporate sustainability – as well as the UN Global Compact Network Greece (UNGCNG), its Greek network.
This participation marks the company’s commitment to align its activities with the Ten Principles of the Global Compact, which concern human rights, labor conditions, environmental protection and the fight against corruption.
At the same time, it strengthens its contribution to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), through targeted actions with social and environmental impact.
“Technology is our vehicle for everyone to live better”
As Christos Karagiannakis, CEO of Kotsovolos, stated: “Technology is our vehicle for all people to live a better life, everywhere. Through our participation in the UN Global Compact and the UN Global Compact Network Greece, we join forces with a global community of responsible businesses and strengthen our commitment to sustainable development and responsible entrepreneurship. We envision a world without barriers and discrimination, with equal opportunities for all.”
Kotsovolos’ sustainability strategy is based on initiatives that enhance its positive impact on people, society and the environment, cultivating a culture of collective action and responsibility.
What joining the UN Global Compact means
The UN Global Compact is the largest international corporate sustainability initiative, encouraging businesses to adapt their strategy and operations to the UN’s 10 principles.
Similarly, the UN Global Compact Network Greece promotes sustainable development and responsible entrepreneurship in our country, strengthening cooperation between businesses, organizations and institutions.
Kotsovolos’ participation gives the company access to international cooperation networks, educational programs, sustainability tools and the opportunity for global promotion of its positive footprint.
With sustainability at its core and technology as a lever for change, Kotsovolos continues to build its profile as a responsible company that creates solutions with a positive social and environmental footprint.
