Microsoft’s<br />
Sustainability Journey &<br />
the Value of Partnerships<br />
Stelios Agapios<br />
Senior Account Executive for Greek<br />
Public Sector at Microsoft<br />
Stelios Agapios, Microsoft<br />
George Sifakis: I'd like to turn to Microsoft. Microsoft shares an ethos with <strong>Ideagen</strong><br />
<strong>Global</strong> that not many Fortune Two companies would ever, and it's because of the<br />
shared ethos and pathos, two wonderful Greek words. It is why we're presented<br />
globally by Microsoft. In terms of the opportunity for the sustainability journey that<br />
you're on, Stelios, can you tell us what that journey looks like?<br />
Stelios Agapios: Microsoft is not new to the sustainability journey, and we started<br />
this journey back in 2009. Our first target was to become a carbon-neutral company,<br />
and we succeeded in 2012.<br />
In 2020, we set up new targets to become carbon-negative, water-positive, and a net<br />
zero waste company until 2030. This was our first target. The second is that from<br />
2030 to 2050, we want to remove from the atmosphere all the emissions that we<br />
created from our establishment in 1975.<br />
