SOFTWAREONE SWITZERLAND
ESG Strategy
" We are in the midst of taking our local ESG initiatives into a global and strategic ESG program at SoftwareONE. In our journey to take on this mammoth task, working with AdvantiKA, we knew that stakeholder engagement was key. One of the highlights was that we could co-create and agree within our Board on clear sustainability ambitions that make sense for SoftwareONE. Using these ambitions, we are now able to implement actions in a structured roadmap.
Additionally, to me personally, the consultants of AdvantiKA helped me as the leader of the project, with patience and kindness. They provided additional information when needed and supported me so that I could drive discussions with our leadership and felt educated on complex subject matters.
At first, SoftwareONE was a bit uncertain, as AdvantiKA's approach seemed to be less pragmatic than the company wished. However, after the construction of the detailed roadmap, collectively, we were able to demonstrate the impact of the ESG strategy in meeting our requirements to go beyond just ticking the boxes, which was one of our demands all along.
Now that AdvantiKA has helped to give our strategy it’s foundations, we are able to create more concreate work ahead and can drive towards more significant sustainability action."

Her deep knowledge and breadth of resources are impressive but what I value the most is Karime’s capacity to quickly dive into any particular issue and adapt her proposed strategy, over time, to the particular challenges I face.

MAKRO BRAZIL - BRAZIL
Awareness & ideation speech at Makro Supply Chain Academy
“
"We had a real education session because Karime (AdvantiKA's founder) addressed not only the retail area but also other segments such as industry, agriculture, logistics, etc., with practical examples of how each of these segments is incorporating sustainable actions in its business in a way that bring benefits not only for these companies but for our entire society. In addition, she also brought examples of how we can implement small actions in our daily lives as citizens and how that can make a huge difference for our planet. We also saw the application of blockchain, actions to fight waste, packaging recycling and reverse-sale. It was fun to see some pursuits that reminded us of the time of our grandmothers, such as bulk sales. In the end, she showed how to have more sustainable logistics. I realized that these companies are now reaping what they planted back there. If we want a better world, we have to start planting this seed of sustainability today.
It was great to see Karime leading such an important topic, not only for companies but also for us as individuals! Some people came to me afterwards to give feedback and all were very positive, stating that she exceeded their expectations, as she approached the topic of sustainability not only in retail but in many other situations, including in our daily lives."
