From the seabed to space, CGI is trusted to do complex things well, and is committed to supporting a sustainable planet for future generations.

 

We believe that business has an obligation to act responsibly, a belief which is realised across our organisation. Demonstrating a strong commitment to sustainability is essential to attract and retain clients and members, and to address citizen demands to reduce the impact of client change.

CGI is pleased to be an active member of the COP26 Business Leaders Forum to share how we help clients and how technology can help achieve a better future for all.
