For the second year in a row, Atea has been named one of the world's top 100
most sustainable companies by the well-respected research and media company
Corporate Knights. This year, Atea earned the 49[th] position in the annual
Global 100 Index, a new best for the company. Atea was also recognized as the
most sustainable company globally within the IT Services Division for the second
consecutive year.

Atea CEO Steinar Sønsteby welcomed both achievements: "Atea has made a strategic
decision and social commitment to lead our industry toward better practices in
sustainability. This is a core part of our company's mission: 'We build the
future with IT'. We are honored to receive this recognition from Corporate
Knights, but also want to thank our employees, customers, suppliers and partners
for their efforts in supporting our company's mission."
