Everything we do within our Qlik Corporate Responsibility program is designed to establish immediate impact and value with partners derived from the use of data and analytics. We also look to set those partners on track for success for years to come. This has been — and always will be — the simple purpose that defines our goals as we now focus our vision on 2020 and beyond.
This past year, we accomplished considerable work with partners by helping them launch major and exciting programs. We are very proud to have ignited significant conversations, generating solutions for global sustainability and humanitarian efforts. With an active commitment to environmental and socioeconomic issues, Qlik launched Qlik.org to tackle challenges ranging from climate change, population displacement and water conservation. With Qlik.org, we expand our ability to leverage data and transform it into meaningful action across the globe to create a sustainable, data literate world within all sectors of business and society.
Qlik is proud to support hundreds of nonprofits around the globe with software, training and services. In 2019, Qlik donated software to numerous organizations in support of their mission and worked with others to present on the importance of sustainability.
Throughout the year, our work is driven by our most important asset – our people. We continue to sponsor Qlik employees to go abroad to determine how they can make a difference. Some traveled to Bali in Indonesia to understand how we can have an impact on plastic pollution. Others went to Malawi to further our commitment to ending poverty in Africa with partner WeSeeHope.
Fueling our efforts are also our incredible interns who benefit from the opportunity to work with some of the world’s most purposeful organizations. Preparing and exciting young people about sustainable business is one of our greatest rewards and serves as a pipeline to bringing sustainability-minded people into the workforce.
As we look forward to launching our 2020 corporate responsibility work, we do so with a vision to involve more partners, especially more young people, in order to deepen our commitment to a sustainable future for every person and our planet. We will issue a comprehensive update of our program in June 2020 as we release our latest impact report.
Thank you, and we look forward to having you join our sustainable and healthy vision for 2020 and beyond.
