乐鱼（Leyu）体育官网 firms are collaborating with Microsoft to launch a range of innovative new solutions to support businesses on their environmental, social and governance (ESG) journey.

Building on 乐鱼（Leyu）体育官网鈥檚 US$5 billion investment in technology, people and innovation, as well as an investment to accelerate global digital solutions for ESG issues, these initiatives expand on the longstanding alliance between 乐鱼（Leyu）体育官网 and Microsoft aimed at providing clients with data-driven insights and support 鈥� from tracking their environmental impact to implementing more sustainable growth strategies.

乐鱼（Leyu）体育官网 Circularity Tracker

At the core of these new ESG solution offerings is Microsoft Cloud for Sustainability, which helps to unify data intelligence and enable sustainability management for organizations at various stages of their ESG journey. The newly launched听乐鱼（Leyu）体育官网 Circularity Tracker aims to provide even greater depth, helping to automate data collection from diverse sources and perform model-based data calculations using standards, regulatory reporting metrics and universally accepted measurement frameworks for circularity performance 鈥� including the (CTI) from the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD). Beyond measuring and tracking circularity at every level of an enterprise, from products and locations to materials and more,听乐鱼（Leyu）体育官网 Circularity Tracker also provides comparisons across products and insights on how to reduce primary resource use and waste generation.

Ahead of the launch of 乐鱼（Leyu）体育官网 Circularity Tracker, 乐鱼（Leyu）体育官网 firms around the world are already making use of Microsoft Sustainability Manager. 乐鱼（Leyu）体育官网 in Sweden is working with Microsoft to deliver a tech-enabled ESG reporting solution for international forestry group S枚dra. S枚dra converts wood raw material into climate-smart products for a global market. The group has been using manual, time-consuming processes to collect, analyze and report on sustainability data. The digital solutions offered by 乐鱼（Leyu）体育官网 in Sweden and Microsoft can help S枚dra spend more time on strategic decision-making and on more detailed analysis and planning.

鈥溊钟悖↙eyu）体育官网 and Microsoft are collaborating and co-creating a solution with us in a unique project that will help support S枚dra鈥檚 climate ambition to be a leader in society's journey towards climate neutrality.

Incorporating Microsoft Cloud for Sustainability in the 乐鱼（Leyu）体育官网 ESG data and reporting solution will enable clients to leverage high-quality data to make real-time decisions.

At the heart of 乐鱼（Leyu）体育官网鈥檚 global alliance with Microsoft is a shared desire and passion to help businesses do the right thing and deliver on their commitments to be more sustainable. My view is that we鈥檙e entering a new stage in the corporate world where boardrooms are taking ESG seriously and want to implement solutions that can reduce environmental impact, while increasing social equity and transparency. Often the biggest barrier to achieving that is a lack of understanding about how to gather genuinely insightful data and how to use that information to deliver positive change. As 乐鱼（Leyu）体育官网 firms enter the next step in our alliance with Microsoft, I鈥檓 confident that we, together with 乐鱼（Leyu）体育官网 professionals and clients, can move towards a model that empowers business leaders to play a more robust, proactive role in creating a sustainable future that works for all.
