Technology, Media + Telecommunications

The Technology, Media and Telecommunications sector holds immense potential to accelerate sustainability through AI, digitalization, 5G, IoT, smart services, and through being the world’s largest corporate purchasers of low-carbon energy. Yet it also carries significant impacts: data centers and networks drive high energy demand; infrastructure construction and critical raw materials extraction put pressure on land and biodiversity, while e-waste is growing.

Sustainable Technology, Media + Telecommunications

We work with technology, media and telecom companies to turn the dual challenge of environmental impact and business opportunity into stronger efficiency, resilience and competitive positioning.


Sustainable Technology, Media + Telecommunications

Manage risk and strengthen performance across the value chain

As digital infrastructure expands, companies face rapid increases in energy demand, water risks, and the need to access critical inputs such as minerals, concrete, and steel. Growing operational risk and cost exposure are compounded by climate and nature-related risks across operations the value chain, such as extreme weather, commodity price volatility, and reputational risks. Additionally, technology, media, and telecom companies face increasing regulatory requirements, including CSRD, alongside rising expectations for transparency on emissions, energy use and e-waste.

Quantis supports companies to implement strategies that address climate and nature-related risks across the value chain. We help integrate energy transition planning, circularity, and data-driven decision-making into operations, enabling more efficient execution and measurable business outcomes.

Our Approach in Action

For two decades, our dynamic and visionary team has partnered with organizations to connect sustainability ambition to real business outcomes.

Ready to align sustainability with business performance?

Quantis Technology, Media + Telecommunications experts can help you:

  • Assess + automate your footprint: corporate, LCA, product

    We bring 20+ years of experience advancing footprinting methodologies and accounting expertise. Today, we leverage our digital services and environmental footprinting expertise to deliver measurable results for hardware, software, semiconductors, data centers, and input providers. We support companies to automate key sustainability tasks, from corporate footprints to product LCAs, using custom solutions and leading tools to improve efficiency, accuracy and scalability.

    Our calculation models for products, infrastructure and services enable teams to measure and track the effects of circularity and reduction initiatives and integrate them into planning and performance management, including emissions from digital services such as software, video and streaming across the lifecycle.

  • Identify risks + adapt

    We help companies review products, offerings, and infrastructure to pinpoint the greatest impacts and prioritize mitigation based on their financial exposure. Technology supply chains face growing risks to critical raw materials, global logistics, and from pressure for low-carbon, circular sourcing. At the same time, telecom infrastructures are increasingly exposed to climate risks — from extreme weather damaging assets to service disruptions that threaten business continuity and trust. Building long-term resilience starts by addressing risk in direct operations and infrastructure, and in securing procurement of critical materials.

  • Decarbonize + deliver business value

    In a sector driven by constant innovation, we develop actionable, science based decarbonization strategies that deliver short- and long-term value through cost savings, risk mitigation and revenue generation.

  • Shape standards to accelerate sustainability

    The technology, media and telecommunications sector includes leaders in clean energy procurement, nature-based solutions and carbon removals – but standards for accounting and target setting haven’t fully caught up. Companies won’t invest if they can’t claim credit against targets, making standards evolution imperative for action. We have spent 20 years at the forefront of defining standards for accounting and target setting across emissions and nature. Today, we continue to engage in standards revision processes for low carbon energy, nature-based solutions, land sector removals, market mechanisms, insetting and claims along the value chain. We work directly with standard setting bodies and facilitate consortia to drive improvements.

  • Avoided emissions: setting the standard for decarbonization downstream

    We build robust, recognized methodologies to measure avoided emissions — capturing the decarbonization benefits of technology innovation across energy consumption, efficiency and end-user behavior. As digital operations grow more complex and compute-intensive, credible measurement becomes the foundation for meaningful climate action.

  • Circular models: generate new revenue streams

    We help companies embed circularity into product design from the start — not as an afterthought. Through ecodesign frameworks, life cycle assessment and circular business model design, we turn material efficiency and end-of-life recovery into concrete business outcomes: lower procurement costs, new revenue streams and a stronger position in markets where environmental criteria increasingly set the bar.

  • Build stakeholder buy-in across the value chain

    We design tailored engagement plans for both internal teams and external partners, building awareness and alignment on sustainability priorities. By activating suppliers and stakeholders, we drive collaboration and accountability to accelerate decarbonization across the entire value chain.
