Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG)

At Akamai, we believe in delivering business results the right way. That means operating at all times in ways that reflect our core values of trust, integrity, inclusion, and respect, and giving back to the communities in which our employees work and live around the world.

Akamai approaches environmental, social, and governance (ESG) priorities not as isolated initiatives, but as fundamental components of a holistic strategy to be the most innovative and high-performing company we can be — on all fronts. That means operating our business in ways that we believe best serve the interests of all our stakeholders, which include our customers, shareholders, employees, partners, communities, and our planet.
