UN GLOBAL GOALS

We Support the UN Global Goals

Techbuyer has supported the UN Sustainable Development Goals since 2019. We have identified nine measurable targets against these. These targets were identified through consultation with our teams.

In 2023, we hit three of these targets early. We will continue in our activities towards these and report new numbers annually to 2025.
