Edenred committed to the fight against climate change alongside the most important companies in France

During the Meeting of French Entrepreneurs (LaREF) held on August 29, 2019, Edenred joined 98 other French companies in a commitment to accelerate innovation and R&D so as to invest in low-carbon solutions, with a view to bringing about a drastic decrease in emissions of greenhouse gases produced on our planet.

The document was signed on behalf of Edenred by Jacques Adoue, the Group’s Executive Vice President, Human Resources and Corporate Social Responsibility.

This commitment forms part of a European and worldwide perspective. The signatory companies consider that this is a vital challenge for ensuring the attractiveness and competitiveness of France and of the EU. They recommend that France and the European Union should take more systematic advantage of the continent’s technological and scientific potential and its competitiveness, and encourage increased cooperation between all the major players in the European business world.
