Sustainability

Infosys began its journey in India's business environment in the 1980s, in an era when endless

red tape was imposed on the private sector. In this environment, building a company whose long-

term objectives included operational longevity, high ethical standards and global respect

demanded commitment to a core set of values. For Infosys, these values focus on instilling trust

in our relationships with all stakeholders, including employees, investors, clients, society and the

communities in which Infosys operates.

At Infosys, we believe that we must develop trust with the communities in which we

operate to achieve longevity as a corporation. Through the Infosys Foundation, which receives a

grant every year from Infosys (the last year's grant was US$ 3 million) we contribute to

betterment of healthcare (hospitals, infrastructure), education (books, scholarships, refurbishment

of infrastructure) and skills

Infosys emphasizes its commitment to investors through stringent corporate governance.

Infosys was also among the first Indian companies to voluntarily comply with the US Generally

Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and now provides financial results in the GAAP of six

countries

With employees from over 70 nationalities, Infosys has built an enduring value system

based on openness, honesty, fairness and transparency, which has earned us the confidence and

trust of our clients. We enjoy +95% customer retention 

Infosys has built one of the largest corporate education centers in the world. This

'finishing center', with an annual capacity of 15,000, provides engineering graduates who aspire

to be employees with the equivalent of a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science from

an American university

Learn more about our initiatives to preserve arts and culture, encourage talent, support education

and healthcare, create a sustainable culture of caring for the environment, and provide impetus to

tomorrow's global companies.
