Dear Stakeholders,
The interrelatedness of our natural, economic and societal systems makes sustainable and inclusive business a mandate, not a choice, for long-term value creation and success.
|
|
|
|
|
For ST Telemedia, this philosophy is encoded in our founding DNA where we have been and remain committed to not only be successful, but also create a positive and better environment for
all today and tomorrow. It is the fundamental reason for our existence — to ignite enduring change that unlocks potential and creates lasting value for our stakeholders.
As we continue to grow and expand, we are also cognisant of our increased responsibility and influence as stewards of resources and human capital available to us. I am pleased to share
that we are taking our commitment in sustainability to the next level with the launch of the ST Telemedia Sustainability Framework.

The ST Telemedia Sustainability Framework
The Framework supports our business objective of building leading platforms that facilitate business growth and help societies advance. It builds on the Group’s consistent commitment to environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and sound governance.
Balancing our business priorities with ecological and societal responsibilities, the ST Telemedia Sustainability Framework is our North Star, guiding our thinking and actions on material environmental, social and governance related issues that matter
most to us and our
three business focus areas — Communications & Media, Data Centres, and Infrastructure Technology. The diagram below is a graphical description of our Framework.
ST Telemedia Sustainability Framework
As a responsible investor, employer and corporate citizen, we aim to invest in, build and grow companies that deliver enduring value to stakeholders and do our part to advance the global sustainable development agenda, especially towards 11 of the UN’s
Sustainable Development Goals.

|
Environmental Stewardship
|
|
Investing in companies that share our environmental aspirations is key to our goal of a low carbon economy. Our portfolio companies are selected after a rigorous evaluation process to
ensure alignment. We actively encourage and support their efforts to minimise impact on the environment.

Sustainability — A Key Investment For Long-term Business Success
Sustainability is a key investment for securing our company’s long-term business success and growth. ST Telemedia has a well-established track record of long-term oriented leadership
and sustained value creation. As a forward-looking company, we will continually assess and enhance our sustainability impact not only as a company, but more importantly as a group.
We will steer this development directly where we can and influence our portfolio companies likewise as part of our collaborative and collective approach to sustainability.
Measurable commitments serve as our promise. We will be documenting our milestones and performance in our inaugural sustainability report in 2022,
and I look forward to sharing that with you.
