Corporate Responsibility

Applied Materials employees around the world joined together in March to celebrate International Women’s Day.

Nonprofits funded by Applied Materials Foundation’s Generation Girl initiative provided high-quality programming for girls across the United States, despite a very difficult year.

While Applied Materials’ ESG ratings are improving, we’re not satisfied yet. Our aspiration is to help drive the semiconductor industry into a leadership role on climate change and supplier engagement.

Recently I participated in an engaging panel discussion on the topic of “Driving Decarbonization in Turbulent Times and Beyond.” What was clear from the discussion is that many businesses are innovating to improve not only their footprint but those of their value chain—suppliers and customers, and that these efforts present tech companies with opportunities for innovation and differentiation.

Applied Materials employees responded generously during our annual North America Fight Against Hunger—a month-long campaign, held virtually this year, to raise funds to help alleviate hunger in communities where we work and live.

In honor of International Day of the Girl on October 11, we’re celebrating the power of today’s generation of girls.

Applied Materials’ latest Sustainability Report outlines the company’s forward-looking objectives and recaps the significant and wide-ranging progress made on our sustainability journey during the past year.

Participating in the 2020 Census will help influence decisions in your community.
