1
00:00:02.200 --> 00:00:04.000
- Sustainability is one

2
00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:06.840
of the defining issues of our lifetime.

3
00:00:07.880 --> 00:00:10.920
In the few years since
my children were born,

4
00:00:10.920 --> 00:00:12.480
the world has experienced

5
00:00:12.480 --> 00:00:15.200
countless climate-related disasters.

6
00:00:18.160 --> 00:00:21.040
- It's clear we need to take action.

7
00:00:21.040 --> 00:00:22.680
But it's not about what we are doing

8
00:00:22.680 --> 00:00:24.080
to make the world better

9
00:00:24.080 --> 00:00:27.120
by the time our children are grown up;

10
00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:28.880
it's about what we are doing

11
00:00:28.880 --> 00:00:30.600
to make a difference today.

12
00:00:32.880 --> 00:00:35.360
In every conversation I
have with business leaders,

13
00:00:35.360 --> 00:00:39.440
sustainability is one of the
first topics that comes up.

14
00:00:39.440 --> 00:00:42.080
They feel the urgency from all sides

15
00:00:42.080 --> 00:00:46.840
to not only be profitable
but also sustainable.

16
00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:48.680
The intelligence and insights

17
00:00:48.680 --> 00:00:51.800
that technology and data provide are key

18
00:00:51.800 --> 00:00:54.200
to successfully tackling this challenge.

19
00:00:55.440 --> 00:00:57.760
As such, digital transformation

20
00:00:57.760 --> 00:01:00.880
has become a must for every company

21
00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:04.120
but no organization can do it alone.

22
00:01:04.120 --> 00:01:06.960
Together, SAP and BCG

23
00:01:06.960 --> 00:01:10.840
will help organizations gain
the transparency they need

24
00:01:10.840 --> 00:01:14.440
for a successful
sustainability transformation,

25
00:01:14.440 --> 00:01:16.960
enabling them to achieve net zero

26
00:01:16.960 --> 00:01:19.960
across the entire value chain.

27
00:01:19.960 --> 00:01:21.320
- Combating climate change

28
00:01:21.320 --> 00:01:23.720
is deeply important to me personally

29
00:01:23.720 --> 00:01:26.640
and it is a top priority for BCG.

30
00:01:26.640 --> 00:01:28.200
I firmly believe

31
00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:30.560
that an organization's
environmental impact

32
00:01:30.560 --> 00:01:32.480
will soon be as important

33
00:01:32.480 --> 00:01:36.400
to its key stakeholders as
its financial performance.

34
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:38.240
Early movers in sustainability

35
00:01:38.240 --> 00:01:41.120
can experience 10% market premium.

36
00:01:41.120 --> 00:01:42.880
This is an enormous opportunity

37
00:01:42.880 --> 00:01:44.680
for companies around the world.

38
00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:47.320
However, nine out of ten organizations

39
00:01:47.320 --> 00:01:50.040
have not cut their emissions
in line with ambitions

40
00:01:50.040 --> 00:01:52.760
or targets over the past five years.

41
00:01:52.760 --> 00:01:56.200
This partnership with
SAP will bridge that gap,

42
00:01:56.200 --> 00:01:58.680
allowing our clients to transform

43
00:01:58.680 --> 00:02:00.720
at an unprecedented pace.

44
00:02:00.720 --> 00:02:03.040
- Jointly, we are launching a suite

45
00:02:03.040 --> 00:02:05.880
of dedicated solutions and services.

46
00:02:05.880 --> 00:02:08.000
This integrated offering is part

47
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:11.400
of SAP Cloud for Sustainable Enterprises,

48
00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:13.320
and supports our customers

49
00:02:13.320 --> 00:02:17.120
with their sustainability
transformation journeys.

50
00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:19.640
They will be able to set the right ambitions

51
00:02:19.640 --> 00:02:23.840
and to create actionable
paths to zero emissions

52
00:02:23.840 --> 00:02:25.600
or zero waste.

53
00:02:25.600 --> 00:02:28.880
You cannot act upon
what you cannot measure.

54
00:02:28.880 --> 00:02:32.120
Our combined approach
will provide customers

55
00:02:32.120 --> 00:02:34.240
with the transparency they need

56
00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:37.360
to effectively measure
their sustainability impact

57
00:02:37.360 --> 00:02:39.040
across the value chain.

58
00:02:39.040 --> 00:02:41.880
It will enable them to
assess the business value

59
00:02:41.880 --> 00:02:44.440
of their sustainability actions,

60
00:02:44.440 --> 00:02:47.000
allowing them to monitor their progress

61
00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:51.080
and steer actions while
complying with regulations.

62
00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:53.880
As part of their initial
transformation step,

63
00:02:53.880 --> 00:02:57.720
they already can realize
up to 40% reduction

64
00:02:57.720 --> 00:02:58.800
in their emissions.

65
00:02:59.720 --> 00:03:03.160
- BCG and SAP make a great team.

66
00:03:03.160 --> 00:03:05.480
Together we'll offer three solutions

67
00:03:05.480 --> 00:03:08.440
to accelerate our clients'
sustainability journeys.

68
00:03:09.320 --> 00:03:12.200
Zero emissions, zero waste,

69
00:03:12.200 --> 00:03:15.320
sustainability steering and reporting.

70
00:03:15.320 --> 00:03:17.360
Zero emissions allows a company

71
00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:19.360
to analyze its carbon footprint

72
00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:21.720
in a few weeks based on SAP data

73
00:03:21.720 --> 00:03:23.960
and simulate which abatement initiatives

74
00:03:23.960 --> 00:03:25.600
are the most promising.

75
00:03:25.600 --> 00:03:27.840
Zero waste helps a company assess

76
00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:30.560
and manage the circularity opportunity

77
00:03:30.560 --> 00:03:33.240
in its portfolio and across supply chains.

78
00:03:33.240 --> 00:03:35.280
Holistic steering and reporting

79
00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:37.520
helps implement end-to-end steering

80
00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:40.440
of the enterprise, driven
by sustainability metrics.

81
00:03:40.440 --> 00:03:43.640
Our deep desire is to lead change

82
00:03:43.640 --> 00:03:47.400
and create sustainable business
value within organizations.

83
00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:49.960
We look forward to empowering our clients

84
00:03:49.960 --> 00:03:54.160
to take action now in
supporting the world's path

85
00:03:54.160 --> 00:03:57.160
to net zero by 2050.
