Corticeira Amorim, the world’s largest cork processing group, is one of the 50 companies taking part in the 50 Sustainability & Climate Leaders campaign. The project is organised by TBD Media Group and its contents will be distributed by the Bloomberg group. It includes a broad range of organisations who are leading the fight against climate change worldwide. Sustainability, technology and innovation are the other drivers that led to the selection of participants of the 50 Sustainability & Climate Leaders programme, which also includes business leaders from areas such as the pharmaceutical, petrochemical and financial services sectors.
Corticeira Amorim is the only Portuguese representative in the 50 Sustainability & Climate Leaders campaign. It accompanies corporate giants such as the Groupe Rocher (France), Novartis (Switzerland), Ericsson (Sweden), Heidelberg Cement (Germany), Prysmian Group (Italy), Suntory Holdings Limited (Japan), Wilo Group (Germany), John Deere (USA), REHAU Group (Switzerland), MANN+HUMME (Germany), Statkraft (Norway), SSI SCHÄFER (Germany) and Archroma (Switzerland).
The 50 Sustainability & Climate Leaders project includes a summit of the 50 leaders that will be held in New York in 2021 under the auspices of the United Nations. Scheduled for 2021, the conference will be aligned with the UN’s 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
