Thank you to the firms who have made a commitment to the CITMA pledge. By taking this important step, you are contributing significantly to making the IP profession more sustainable and environmentally conscious.

Thank you to the following firms who have signed the pledge:

The pledge:

We commit to taking action to do our part to reduce our contribution to emissions by:

Appointing a green champion within our firm, organisation or in-house department.
Putting in place a robust plan to measure and reduce our greenhouse gas emissions e.g. investigating and measuring emissions, setting scope-based targets and/or emissions reduction goals. This can include third parties measuring and reporting on our behalf.
Setting an overall target for us to become net zero and, where possible, setting an aspirational year to achieve net zero and/or more immediate and achievable time-based goals to reduce emissions.
Facilitating engagement within our firm and encouraging members of our firm to engage in positive sustainability practices.
Engaging with the IP community to collectively tackle climate change.
Playing a key role in promoting sustainable practice e.g. by publishing our progress annually.
Aiming to inspire and support climate positive actions both collectively as a firm and at an individual level e.g. through making choices at a firm/individual level to have a positive impact on the environment and/or engaging with communities/climate campaigns and/or supporting these causes.
Facilitating engagement towards positive sustainability practices with our suppliers, clients and those we work with, where possible.
