Working Towards Net Zero
Rooted in green practices and technologies, we have been assessed and are now implementing our plan to lowering our carbon emissions.
Using the power of people and the Microsoft ecosystem, we can help you to turn sustainability goals into practical actions. We know that budget and cash flow are geared towards growth. Using AI creates an opportunity to support sustainability initiatives. Harnessing your data to reduce cost and efficiencies; quantify carbon impact and identify areas for improvement.
Simple Ways We Have Helped:
A customer saved 50,000 sheets of paper = 5 trees .
A customer reduced emissions from travel, by empowering staff through business process automation.
An SME customer saved £25,000 average salary by digitising one process.
An SME customer saved 780 admin hours by increasing one member of staffs productivity.
Sustainability and ESG, isn’t a bandwagon we have jumped on, its been at the core of Appetite from the start. Appetite are the first B Corp certified tech consultancy of our kind in Scotland. We are already seeing other tech businesses follow which is the highest form of flattery.
We’re incredibly proud to be one of a growing community of B Corps in the world and disrupting a sector which is known for being very transactional.
