INFORM is a founding member of the digitalHUB Aachen. This organization supports the development of SME in the Aachen region, which INFORM is also committed to co-shape.
We deeply believe that healthy organizations depend on healthy people and a healthy planet. Therefore, we at INFORM engage in a broad variety of activities related to planetary and societal health and invest a lot in the health and well-being of our staff.
THE 17 UN-SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS (SDGS)
In 2015, the United Nations adopted Agenda 2030. It is a roadmap for the future and comprises 17 global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). These goals enable a dignified life worldwide while preserving natural resources in the long term. The goals cover economic, ecological, and social aspects.
Discover how we are responding to the SDGs with a wide range of activities on our campus and in the Aachen region.

The INFORM SDG-network
Sooner or later, everyone will be involved in the transformation to a sustainable economy. Depending on their role within an organization, different people make different contributions to sustainability. For this reason, INFORM founded the SDG Network in May 2020, a group of more than 20 colleagues who have been delegated from various functions. The network meets once a month to discuss progress on a variety of sustainability activities, develop ideas, and share experiences.
Activities related to Climate adaptation
Producing our own electricity
Since 2018, we have been offsetting the greenhouse gas emissions generated by our business air travel by supporting reforestation measures.
Since 2020, we have used 100% green electricity in our INFORM buildings. In 2021, we reduced the electricity consumption of our data center by more than 30% using a hot/cold aisle separation through enclosure as well as outdoor cooling.
We promote the use of bicycle transport and e-mobility for our employees and are committed to designing climate-friendly mobility in Aachen.
We also support reforestation and renaturation measures through cooperation with the Climate Ticket of the Aachen-Cape Town Partnership.
