The SDG Group has been facing its most significant challenges since its inception due to factors such as U.S.-China tensions, high global high interest rates, and the Russia-Ukraine conflict, which have led to issues related to energy, inflation, and disrupted supply chains. The SDG Group has initiated a series of sustainable development plans across four major dimensions: corporate governance, corporate commitments, social engagement, and environmental sustainability. These efforts are aimed at promoting corporate sustainability and industry recovery.
- In terms of corporate governance, the SDG Group operates its headquarters in a quasi-publicly traded format to enhance the transparency and efficiency of corporate governance on a global scale.
- In corporate commitments, the SDG Group is establishing global power supply standardization and an SDG Industry Value Network. Simultaneously, we have set up a Founder's Charitable Trust to commit to contributing more value to society and the environment.
- Regarding social engagement, the SDG Group has established the SDG Academy, developed the Share+ APP, and expanded the MEAN WELL Public Welfare Fund to strengthen the construction of community welfare centers.
- In environmental sustainability, the SDG Group is committed to product certification, improving energy efficiency, and promoting sustainability activities to contribute to environmental sustainability positively.
