I am pleased to announce that today; Intel became a supporter of the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC).
The commitment to doing the right things the right way is culturally engrained at Intel. Uncompromising integrity and the highest standards of business ethics informs everything we do. That commitment determines how we run our daily operations around the world, and drives our approach to corporate social responsibility. We are actively engaged around the world with organizations, like the United Nations, that share the same commitment.
We have worked very closely with the United Nations over the years, so it was no surprise when prior to the 2009 World Economic Forum annual meeting, we received an email from the U.N. General Secretary’s office asking to meet with Craig Barrett, Intel’s Chairman, while he was in Davos. We, of course, readily accepted the meeting. In that meeting Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon made a formal request to Intel to support the United Nations Global Compact.
