IBM — a leading hybrid cloud, AI, and business services provider — has been named technology partner of the 2022 UN Climate Change Conference, or COP27, to be hosted by the Egyptian government in Sharm El-Sheikh during Nov. 6 to 18. At the conference, IBM will showcase how technology and consulting can help business and government leaders align sustainability goals to organizational objectives, responding to regulatory demands and without compromising profitability.
This collaboration with the presidency of Egypt builds on IBM’s history of environmental commitments and alliances, such as establishing a goal to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 or being a founding member of the UN Environment Program’s Science-Policy-Business Forum on the Environment. IBM also enables organizations and communities to tackle environmental issues through programs like the IBM Sustainability Accelerator.
“IBM is honored to be technology partner in this year’s historic COP conference and to help address the existential challenge of climate change,” said IBM’s Chairman and CEO Arvind Krishna. “I believe that technology can turn sustainability ambition into action. At IBM, we combine technology and expertise to help some of the world’s largest public and private organizations achieve their sustainability goals, in addition to setting our own strong environmental commitments.”
