Virtusa Corporation, a global provider of digital strategy, digital engineering, and information technology (IT) services and solutions, has been awarded the EcoVadis Gold Medal for the third consecutive year, in recognition of the company’s outstanding sustainability performance. This prestigious award places Virtusa in the 98th percentile of all companies assessed globally by EcoVadis, positioning it among the highest-performing organizations worldwide. In addition to its strong global standing, Virtusa also ranks in the top 1% within its industry sector – a distinction that highlights its leadership among peers.

“This Gold Medal and our top-tier ranking are a testament to Virtusa’s unwavering commitment to responsible business practices. Our sustainability agenda is integrated into our operations, decision-making, and long-term strategy. We recognise that sustainable performance goes hand in hand with financial and operational excellence – and we’re proud that EcoVadis has validated that once again,” said Amit Bajoria, Chief Financial Officer at Virtusa.

As a global technology leader, Virtusa embeds sustainability into the core of its business, focusing on three strategic pillars: reducing environmental impact, enabling an inclusive and welcoming workplace, and fostering responsible supply chains. This commitment is underpinned by a science-based climate strategy aligned with the 1.5°C pathway, validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).

In FY24, Virtusa:

Increased its renewable energy usage to 28%

Achieved a 15% year-over-year reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions

Recycled 50% of its water use

The company also continues to strengthen inclusion efforts and expand ESG-focused supplier engagement globally.

Virtusa’s progress is enabled through structured sustainability governance, regular stakeholder engagement, and the integration of ESG principles across its operations – from cloud-native green IT solutions to biodiversity restoration projects. These initiatives reflect Virtusa’s long-term vision: to engineer a more resilient, inclusive, and sustainable future through innovation and accountability.

Virtusa’s recognition underscores its continued dedication to engineering meaningful, measurable impact – not only through technology but through responsible growth and governance. EcoVadis is the world’s most trusted provider of business sustainability ratings, having evaluated more than 85,000 companies across four key themes: Environment, Labour & Human Rights, Ethics, and Sustainable Procurement.
