Sustainability Meets Corporate Learning
The Speexx CSR Report 2024 highlights how sustainability, digital transformation, and the future of work are inseparable forces shaping today’s organizations. In this landscape, corporate social responsibility (CSR) is more than a compliance exercise—it is a core value. Customers, partners, and employees alike expect companies to show not just innovation, but also integrity.
As a global leader in corporate learning and language training, Speexx is committed to embedding sustainability across every aspect of its operations—people, resources, and technology. The Speexx CSR Report 2024 demonstrates how we integrate environmental, social, and digital responsibility into daily business practices to create meaningful, measurable impact.
Sustainability in Everyday Business: CO₂ Reduction and Green IT
Sustainability in the EdTech industry goes far beyond “green labels.” The report highlights clear, measurable strategies designed to reduce emissions and conserve resources:
- Carbon footprint: In 2024, Speexx recorded Scope 1–3 emissions and achieved a 12% reduction compared to 2022.
- Green IT & Cloud Solutions: Energy-efficient server infrastructures lower our digital footprint while ensuring reliable learning access worldwide.
- Sustainable Mobility: Remote work and responsible travel policies help minimize business travel emissions.
As this year’s report shows, climate protection in corporate learning isn’t an optional add-on—it’s the foundation of sustainable growth and long-term innovation.
Diversity and Inclusion: A Success Factor for the Future of Work
A truly sustainable workplace depends on diversity. Our ongoing progress in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), highlights how representation and opportunity go hand in hand:
- Gender balance: More than 50% of management positions at Speexx are now held by women.
- Global workforce: Employees from over 80 countries bring cultural richness and a global perspective to our corporate culture.
- Mentoring for inclusion: Targeted programs support the participation and growth of underrepresented groups across all departments.
As shown in our CSR Report 2024, the future of work proves that diversity is not just a social responsibility – it’s a genuine driver of innovation and organizational success.
