ASBIS: Championing Social Good and a Greener Planet in EMEA

At ASBIS, we're passionate about making a positive impact in the communities we serve across 34 countries in the EMEA region! Our commitment to environmental sustainability and social well-being shines through in the various projects we support each year. Here are some of the highlights of our efforts:

Green projects:

  • Tree planting adventures: Our team and their families came together in the beautiful Curium area of Cyprus to plant 300 trees. We also had a wonderful time planting 300 oak seedlings in Maksimir Park, Zagreb's oldest park, where we’re helping nurture the environment while creating amazing memories.

  • Smart green office: Our Dubai office is leading the way with a solar-powered heating system. This means we're not only cutting down on energy use but also taking big steps toward reducing our carbon footprint.

  • Community clean-up days: We cleaned up 200 meters of historic ditches in Štiavnica, Slovakia that are important for conserving water. We also dedicated time to spruce up a 25-acre animal enclosure at ZOO PARK in Revishtsky Podzamče.

  • Recycling with a twist: We're excited about our new eco-fuel startup, Blend Energy, which is turning mixed polymer waste into valuable energy resources. It's our way of supporting the transition to a circular economy and helping the planet.

 

Educational projects:

  • We proudly sponsored the "Unknown Mission League" bringing together over 500 enthusiastic students for a nationwide robotics competition.

  • In Cyprus, we welcomed 25 talented students from the University of Pittsburgh’s Swanson School of Engineering, where they got hands-on experience in supply chain management.

  • Our Apple Education event in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, was a fantastic opportunity for academics to learn more about Apple Education Solutions.

  • We also hosted a fun three-day educator camp in Limassol, featuring the DOBOT CR5 robotic arm. This initiative aims to inspire 16 wonderful technical educators to incorporate robotics into their classrooms.

 

Charitable contributions:

  • The ASBIS Slovakia team brought smiles to 66 children in orphanages this Christmas by fulfilling their wishes and delivering gifts.

  • With a €15,000 donation, we’re lending a helping hand to families in need and those facing tough times.

  • In Bulgaria, we joined the Christmas Charity Market in Sofia

  • In Cyprus we donated clothes to families in need.

  • Our "ASBIS Little People's Library" initiative in Romania is all about sharing the joy of reading by donating children’s books to local libraries.

  • Our teams have also been busy volunteering at food kitchens and running in charity events like the Peace Marathon in Slovakia and a fun relay run in Bulgaria.

 

At ASBIS, we’re thrilled to be driving positive change and showing that tech can be a force for good!
