On the afternoon of December 12, an event took place at Shanghai Tower aiming to create an ecosystem of corporate headquarters in Pudong and promote Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives in the district. Sennics' ESG case study "Taking Action to Build a Green Future by Addressing the Need of Customers for Carbon Reduction" was honored with two awards at the event: "The 2024 ESG Case Study of the Year for Chinese and Foreign Enterprises in Pudong" and "The 2024 Industry Ecosystem Competition for Chinese and Foreign Enterprises in Pudong: ESG Case Study of the Year".

ESG has become an important area for enterprises both today and in the future because of the growing attention of people from different walks of life to it.

On the governance front, the company has integrated sustainability into corporate governance, making ongoing efforts to improve its governance and sustainability. It is committed to promoting responsible business operations with a high ethical standard, to help achieve the long-term value. On the social front, the company is steadfast in adopting a people-based strategy by actively enhancing its workforce. The company is actively involved in nonprofit and charitable undertakings. It has multiple CSR programs, encourages employees to serve as volunteers, and partners with various stakeholders to make this world a better place.
