Virtusa Corporation, a global leader in digital strategy, engineering, and IT services, has published its FY24 Sustainability Report, highlighting significant progress toward its sustainability targets. The company remains committed to achieving Net-Zero by 2040 and sourcing 100% renewable energy by 2030, while also fostering workplace inclusion and strengthening governance practices.

The report showcases Virtusa’s alignment with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) Net-Zero standard, making it one of the first 100 software and services companies to have its targets validated by SBTi.

Achieving Sustainability Milestones

In FY24, Virtusa partnered with a globally recognized sustainability assessment provider to identify supply chain risks and track suppliers’ contributions to its Scope 3 reduction targets. The company enhanced its sustainability offerings, focusing on four key areas:

  • Regulatory and compliance reporting
  • Decarbonization
  • Climate and nature risk management
  • Sustainability interventions in products and services

Virtusa also joined the CEO Water Mandate, aligning its operations with global water sustainability goals and formulating a policy commitment to reduce plastic use.

Several initiatives, including Virtusa Thrive Academy, Virtusa Evolve, Edge Mobility, and AI-powered Skill Compass, provide upskilling opportunities and career growth, ensuring a future-ready workforce. In FY24, over 7,000 employees earned certifications across various fields, reinforcing Virtusa’s commitment to innovation and expertise.

Biodiversity Commitments
