Our Company Strategy

ALSO's strategy follows two guidelines: MORE, our corporate strategy, which aims to grow our business, and LESS, our sustainability strategy, which aims to minimize our footprint.

The two strategies are closely interconnected and guide our approach to sustainable growth and responsible corporate governance.

More

Our Business Strategy

Introduced in 2011, the MORE strategy embodies our commitment to sustainable profitable growth while maintaining the capital structure and increasing profitability. It comprises four key activities:

Maintain

Stands for securing what has already been achieved, further expansion of the ecosystem or, in developed markets, keeping the dominant position.

Optimize

We continuously improve our business models and processes to enhance operational excellence and achieve financial success.

Reinvent

While growing with our transactional business model, we aim to significantly increase the share of net sales generated from solution- and service-oriented as a Service business models.

Enhance

Through strategic acquisitions, we strengthen our position, be it by creating presences in new countries, reinforcing the position in already existing markets or through acquisitions in the area of digital platforms.

Less

Our Sustainable Engagement

Responsible corporate management is essential to us, encompassing sustainable growth, ethical conduct, and improving people’s quality of life through technology. Our LESS sustainability strategy focuses on four key areas:

Lower

We reduce our footprint by implementing measures such as the reduction of CO2 emissions and energy consumption, efficient waste management, and transitioning to sustainable energy sources.

Enhance

We enhance our sustainability reporting and promote responsible resource use within the company, further reducing our environmental impact through comprehensive monitoring and reporting.

Secure

Cybersecurity is a critical aspect of increasing digitalization. We prioritize data security, privacy protection, compliance, and risk management, ensuring sustainable corporate development and providing security for our employees and customers.

We also create and secure jobs through the economic success of the company.

Sustain

We actively contribute to the development of society by making digital skills and knowledge accessible, particularly to children and young people. Through local initiatives in our national companies, we empower local communities and promote digital literacy.
