EURid Hosts Green Discussion Panel at The 2017 Internet Governance Forum in Geneva

EURid understands the importance that possessing a neutral carbon footprint has on the planet, which is why it has, and continues to support sustainable projects all over the world.

Since May 2012, EURid has been Eco-Management and Audit Scheme (EMAS) certified, which reflects its continuous pursuit towards being a sustainable organisation. As part of its EMAS certification, EURid has issued and instituted an environmental policy , through which it has achieved the following goals:

  • In 2015, EURid joined forces with the environmental Spanish non-profit organisation FAPAS. A number of fruit trees were planted in Asturias, Spain, an area populated by the endangered European brown bear. EURid also purchased verified CO2 credits to contribute to the Ecomapuà project with the goal of conserving the rich biodiversity in the Amazon.
  • In 2016, EURid compensated for its 2015 CO2 emissions and purchased verified CO2 credits to contribute to the Dak Rung Hydropower project in Vietnam.
  • In 2017, EURid compensated for its 2016 CO2 emissions and purchased verified CO2 credits to support the Uganda Borehole Rehabilitation project.

In 2016 and 2017, EURid made donations to Surfrider, an organisation dedicated to protecting the world’s oceans.

At the 2018 IGF meeting in Geneva , EURid wants to encourage more digital companies to think green with its green discussion panel. “Our goal is to generate awareness surrounding how digital companies can be green in their approach and day to day activities”, commented Giovanni Seppia, EURid External Relations Manager.

EURid’s employees are stimulated to think green as well, with some riding their bikes or taking the train to work. The amount of trash bins has been minimised within the organisation to cut down on waste too, while sorting remains a top priority.

In 2018, EURid will continue to develop and bolster its green commitment with its updated environmental policy, which will coincide its EMAS registration renewal in Q1 2018.

Obsidian Security Unveils AI Agent Defense to Secure SaaS Data Access23.9.2025 15:00:00 CEST | Press release

New platform capabilities safeguard enterprises from the next frontier of cyber risk: autonomous AI agents inside business-critical SaaS. Obsidian Security, leader in SaaS security, today announced the launch of SaaS AI agent defense, giving enterprises the first purpose-built solution to govern how AI agents access data in SaaS environments. With SaaS now one of the most targeted layers of the enterprise stack, Obsidian is closing the enterprise AI agent-to-SaaS blindspot, where unmanaged agentic AI integrations and excessive privileges can create cascading risk. In the recent Salesforce attack (UNC6040), threat actors used voice phishing campaigns to obtain initial access and run bulk API queries for large-scale data theft and extortion.

82% of Global LPs to Increase Exposure to Private Credit in Next Three Years, CSC Research Finds23.9.2025 15:00:00 CEST | Press release

Portfolio diversification (76%) tops LP motivations to increase allocations, more than double those citing attractive returns (36%). Private credit GPs anticipate continued AUM growth, led by senior debt and asset-backed finance; cross-border lending set to surge. More than four fifths (82%) of limited partners (LPs) say they expect to increase allocations to private credit over the next three years, according to a new international study by CSC, the leading provider of global business administration and compliance solutions. Of these LPs, around two fifths (42%) expect “significant” growth in private credit exposure, underscoring the momentum and positive investor sentiment towards the asset class. The research that canvassed the views of 300 general partners (GPs) and 200 limited partners (LPs) in Europe, Asia Pacific, and North America, found that portfolio diversification was the primary motive behind greater allocation (according to 76% of LPs), ahead of attractive returns (36%).
