As a responsible company in the digital marketing sector, Vast Forward has set itself the goal of implementing a holistic sustainability strategy.
We want to make a sustainable, measurable contribution against the framework of generally accessible, scientific findings and as support for the transition to a low-carbon economy.
In doing so, we are taking on a number of new challenges, which we are addressing through measures such as tracking our digital supply chains in a transparent process.

Here we go... here is our blog post on the topic of "GREEN HOSTING".
2023 - What a year! Fortunately, just like last year, we used our annual workshop to look back on 2023, because a lot has happened. Find out more in this blog post.
Sustainability - to be honest, this was a late addition to our values. We were already on the right track with our female-led business, our remote shop structure, our non-commuting, diverse team, our minimal office use and last but not least our fully sustainable floating office VAST... But we've learned from what's going on around us.
Based on the teams’ existing basic mindset and personal commitment to sustainability, VAST FORWARD identified key VAST GREEN principles to serve as the framework for our sustainability strategy:
