Mobility Special
“When my wife and kids started about an EV, it became a no-brainer” Accenture takes its sustainability targets very seriously. By 2025, the company intends to have reduced its carbon emissions by at least 60% relative to 2019. Already, they are at 75% of that target, thanks to ongoing investments in electric vehicles, a mobility budget and a shift towards virtual meetings. Roy Ikink, managing director and lead of Accenture Technology in the Netherlands, drives a fully electric BMW iX50. “When my lease ended two years ago, I’d been thinking for a while that I didn’t want another traditional petrol car. And then when my wife and kids started about an EV as well, it became a no-brainer. As soon as the first BMW models with a serious range arrived in Van Poelgeest’s Amsterdam showroom, I was sold.” 38
