VMware recognized for outstanding corporate sustainability performance

VMware, Inc. (NYSE: VMW) today announced the company has been recognized on the 2020 Dow Jones Sustainability Indices (DJSI), one of the world’s leading environmental, social, and governance (ESG) benchmarks. VMware ranked in the 94th percentile in the software category for its leadership in corporate sustainability.

“Our commitment to building a resilient and sustainable future extends across everything we do,” said Nicola Acutt, vice president of sustainability strategy at VMware. “VMware is honored to be included in this prestigious index and as we embark on a new decade, we will continue to push the limits of positive change with greater tenacity than ever.”

VMware achieved high scores in key areas of business conduct, including Information Security, Climate Strategy, Environmental Reporting as well as Corporate Citizenship and Philanthropy, among others.

“We congratulate VMware for being included in the DJSI World and DJSI North America. DJSI distinction is a reflection of being a sustainability leader in your industry.
