TDF launches a new dynamic around its ESG strategy
A leading industrial player in France, TDF designs, deploys and maintains telecommunications infrastructures (fixed and mobile) and broadcasting networks essential to the population. Through its actions, the company contributes to ensuring the broadcasting of Digital Terrestrial Television and radio, improving mobile coverage and deploying fiber optic networks in rural areas.
Benoît Mérel, Executive Vice President, COO, of the TDF Group, comments: "The GRESB 2023 results bear witness to the fact that TDF has been committed for many years to reducing the digital divide in France. Today, the Group intends to take its ESG strategy a step further, particularly in terms of the energy and environmental performance of its activities. We are working to create a new dynamic that will be supported by environmental commitments and a policy at the heart of our corporate strategy. This change will now be led by Christophe Maximilien, TDF's Human Resources Director, who has long supported a strong and innovative social policy.
