Media and Games Invest starts its collaboration with planetly to achieve its target to become carbon neutral by 2022
Media and Games Invest SE (“MGI” or the “Company”, ISIN: MT0000580101; Ticker M8G; Nasdaq First North Premier Growth Market and Scale Segment Frankfurt Stock Exchange) is excited to start its collaboration with planetly and taking further action to improve its ecological footprint.
MGI is committed to take on its responsibility towards a more sustainable world and has taken important steps during the last year. During 2020 MGI has, amongst others, joined UN Global Compact and established a sustainability committee. The company’s games unit gamigo group has planted over 200,000 trees in cooperation with the gamers and the Eden Reforestation Project and MGI’s media unit Verve Group has joined the initiative AdTechCares to fight misinformation about the Covid-pandemic and to support fact-based journalism. The company’s sustainability report will be published shortly.
The cooperation with planetly is another important step for MGI in the company’s sustainability strategy. plantely is supporting companies to measure their CO2 footprint, to evaluate the adequate actions to offset a company’s emissions and supporting the companies to reduce their footprint and to become carbon neutral. planetly is using a software-based solution to measure and understand the CO2 emissions at different locations, allows you to analyze different time periods and lets you benchmark different locations against each other, thereby offering a comprehensive solution and providing expert advice on how to compensate and reduce your CO2 emissions. Currently, planetly is analyzing MGI’s past CO2 footprint and evaluating which next steps should be taken and how MGI and planetly can cooperate going forward.
“We are excited about the partnership with planetly and looking forward to see the results of the cooperation. Sustainability plays an important role for MGI for many years already and even more in the future. For example, we were one of the first games companies that moved its games portfolio from rigid data centers to flexible cloud solutions, consuming only on-demand energy. Together with planetly, we will work on further improvements towards meeting our target of being carbon neutral from 2022 onwards.”, says Remco Westermann, CEO of Media and Games Invest.
