Vimond achieves top-level accreditation in the DPP Committed to Sustainability programme

As part of the continued pursuit of excellence in all aspects of operations and in line with our heritage of strong ethical values in corporate governance, Vimond is proud to announce that we have achieved a five-out-of-five leaf mark in the DPP Committed to Sustainability programme.

The award follows a thorough assessment of Vimond's approach to managing and reducing the environmental impact of our operations and forward commitment to promoting greater environmental responsibility and visibility of key climate metrics.

The programme, an industry-leading scheme celebrating and promoting good practice in environmental sustainability across the media industry, provides a practical tool to assess your organisation's progress against key environmental measures and a common framework enabling participants to better understand their organisation's current status and demonstrate a commitment to continuous improvement.

Environmental sustainability and responsible software development have long been key values at Vimond, and we have often been early adopters of tools, technologies and processes to ensure the minimum impact in an industry that draws heavily on computing power and energy consumption. 

While we strive towards targets to further reduce the environmental impact of every customer using our software and tools, joining the DPP Committed to Sustainability programme helps to connect and formalise all our initiatives and achievements. 

Most importantly, this milestone represents a strong position from which Vimond can help customers, partners and the industry move towards a more circular economy. As we all work to understand Scope 3 emissions better, having made the most impactful immediate changes to operations, we can now better focus our efforts on exposing improvements to be made within supply chains to understand better the complete end-to-end climate impact of our efforts to bring happiness to consumers.

Vimond works with some of the leading broadcasters and media companies worldwide, providing quality, excellence and reliability. Adding the sustainability accreditation to other recognitions such as the ISAE 3000 Type II report, and our AWS Qualified Software, CloudFront Service Ready designation and Media & Entertainment competency further cements our position as a power within the industry.

With millions of consumers worldwide watching video content managed and streamed to their devices with award-winning Vimond technology every day, we are proud to wear the five-leaf mark.” says Fredrik Gunnestad, CEO of Vimond. 

With our established enterprise platform as a foundation for providing complete end-to-end streaming solutions to local news organisations, digital publishers and corporate clients, Vimond Essentials customers can be confident that their services are underscored by the marks of quality that can often only be achieved by much larger organisations.
