International technology company Semcon has joined four climate-based initiatives to accelerate its climate action and commit to sustainable goals.

It has joined the Exponential Roadmap initiative, the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi), the Race to Zero campaign and the UN Global Compact.

It has committed to halving its emissions by 2030 and setting science-based targets, verified by SBTi, to align itself with Paris Agreement ambition to limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels.

Marks Granlund, CEO, said: “At Semcon we work with customers in a range of different industries that all need to undergo significant transformation to align with the 1.5°C ambition.

“We intend to support them with best-in-class services and solutions in their journey towards net zero emissions. Just like our customers, we too need to ensure that our entire value chain is aligned with the 1.5°C ambition”.
