Companies showcase the latest solution at COP27
Cognizant is expanding its collaboration with Microsoft to accelerate both digital and sustainability transformations through a new solution – the Cognizant® Sustainability Accelerator, powered by the Microsoft Cloud and Microsoft Cloud for Sustainability. This innovative solution combines both Cognizant’s deep experience in IoT and data analytics with Microsoft’s industry-leading cloud capabilities.
Cognizant and Microsoft are showcasing this robust solution together at COP27, taking place this week in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt.
Corporate sustainability is more than a nice-to-have, optional initiative for companies in today’s economy. To grow, thrive, and manage risk, companies must incorporate sustainability into their strategies, operations, and cultures. Investors, regulators, employees, and consumers all expect companies to radically reduce or even eliminate their negative impacts while finding ways to provide value and improve outcomes for people and the planet. And stakeholders expect robust reporting to hold companies accountable to their stated goals.
Accurate data and digital capabilities sit at the center of helping companies determine the appropriate actions and demonstrate accountability. The Cognizant® Sustainability Accelerator automates the collection of data and provides valuable analytics that allow clients to track and take action on their sustainability goals. Utilizing Microsoft Sustainability Manager, Cognizant delivers end-to-end capabilities required to automate the collection, analysis and reporting of sustainability efforts.
