Driving Positive Change
Highlighting our progress across our environmental, social, and governance (ESG) initiatives, the Ansys corporate responsibility report sets out our commitment to delivering positive change and long-term value for our stakeholders – our investors, customers, employees, and partners.
The foundation of our ESG program are four pillars:
- Advancing sustainability through our products – At Ansys, we look for new and better ways to engineer what’s ahead. By focusing on creating new technology and improving current technology, we aim to support our customers in their design of products, including addressing issues related to making their products more efficient, with less waste, and minimizing physical prototyping.
- Investing in our people and ONE Ansys culture – Our people are at the core of driving product innovation for our customers. We aim to create a culture of belonging and inclusion where everyone can be themselves and thrive as a ONE Ansys team. We’re proud of our expert workforce and its ability to translate creativity and dedication into product innovation and operational excellence.
- Operating responsibly – We aim to reduce the environmental and climate impact of our operations by measuring, analyzing, and reducing our resource use and emissions. In 2022, we announced a target to reduce our scope 1 and scope 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 15% by 2027 against our 2019 baseline. We have made tremendous progress with our environmental sustainability strategy and exceeded our goal. Compared to our 2019 baseline, we have reduced our scope 1 and scope 2 market-based emissions by 42%.
- Collaborating with stakeholders – We continue to engage with our stockholders, investors, customers, employees, communities, and other stakeholders through feedback, engagement surveys, and supporting the communities in which we live and work.
