Dassault Systèmes Impact Report

An Impact Report explains how an organization creates positive environmental, social and economic value through its business activities. It highlights the actions, commitments and measurable outcomes that demonstrate the organization's impact on people, society and the environment.

Unlike a traditional Sustainability Report or ESG Report, an Impact Report not only tracks performance and commitments but also showcases how a company's products, services and innovations contribute to solving real-world challenges and driving sustainable progress.

While these two documents often overlap and are sometime used interchangeably, they serve distict purposes.

An ESG Report looks primarily inward, measuring how well a company manages Environmental, Social, and Governance risks against standardized criteria. It's metrics-driven and compliance-oriented, written primarily for investors and regulators who want comparable, verifiable data aligned with frameworks like CSRD, ISSB, or GRI.

A Sustainability Impact Report, while highlighting internal achievements, also looks outward, telling the story of the real-world change created for for key stakeholders in a company’s ecosystem. It is framed around mission and contributions to goals such as the UN SDGs.

In short, an ESG report measures performance and accountability, while an impact report measures contribution and outcomes.An ESG Report focuses on how a company manages its Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) performance. It typically includes policies, risks, governance, compliance and measurable indicators related to sustainability.

No. While the terms are often used interchangeably, an Impact Report goes beyond a traditional Sustainability Report by highlighting not only a company's environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance, but also the measurable impact of its products, services and innovations on customers, society and the environment.

At Dassault Systèmes, our Impact Report combines sustainability performance, ESG commitments and measurable business impact. It showcases how our virtual twins, AI and collaborative innovation help industries accelerate sustainable transformation while advancing our own corporate responsibility and climate commitments.

Dassault Systèmes measures impact in two directions through its three strategic pillars: the Handprint looks outward at the positive impact our solutions create for customers and the world, while the Footprint and Human Capital pillars look inward at the Company’s own operations, culture and people.

This dual view is backed by concrete, time bound targets that are independently audited and recognized by leading ESG ratings agencies.
