Membership of Planet Mark aligns with our commitment to undertake initiatives which acknowledge the climate emergency by responding with pioneering action through responsible delivery and operation.
ESG is integrated into every aspect of Stanhope’s business including our assets, investments and developments, and we work closely with clients, partners and peer groups to align ESG objectives. Stanhope sets delivery targets for every asset and project tailored to the specific project context, and our Planet Mark membership will enable us to enhance our action plans by measuring our carbon emissions and social value; and ultimately making carbon reductions for our headquarters in London.
