At Aiven, we are committed to building a world where open source technology is developed by everyone, for everyone, with the well-being of people and the environment at its core.
We recognize the significant environmental footprint of innovative data technologies, both for us and our customers. While cloud platforms offer energy efficiencies over traditional implementations, we strive to further minimize our carbon footprint and assist our customers in doing the same.
Our commitment extends beyond environmental considerations. We aim to:
• Foster a Diverse and Inclusive Workforce: Building a team dedicated to driving positive change.
• Democratize Access to Technology: Lowering barriers so more individuals can contribute to societal and economic development.
• Support Aligned Initiatives: Engaging in programs that resonate with our core values.
We challenge ourselves to define what it means to be a socially and environmentally responsible company and to translate that definition into tangible actions and improvements. Our approach aligns social and environmental efforts with our business objectives, supported by both quantitative and qualitative metrics to measure and report our progress.
Our sustainability program operates through three interconnected pillars:
Climate Action
Mapping and reducing Aiven’s environmental footprint while assisting customers and organizations in achieving their sustainability goals.
Social Impact
Empowering Aiven employees to engage in meaningful causes that reflect our values, such as supporting open source projects and offering paid leave for volunteering and learning.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI)
Creating an inclusive workplace through initiatives like our Proud Crabs community, which provides a safe space for LGBTQ+ members and allies.
We are committed to continuous improvement in our sustainability journey. Our next steps include:
We invite you to join us as we work towards a more sustainable and inclusive future.
