Commvault Joins Powerful Business Avengers Coalition to Deliver on Global Goals for Sustainable Development

Commvault, a recognized global enterprise software leader in the management of data across cloud and on-premises environments, announced at Commvault GO 2019 its participation in the recently formed “Business Avengers” coalition. In a historic tour de force, the coalition unites 17 global companies together representing more than $500 billion in revenue and 900,000 employees to deliver on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) agreed to by every UN nation by 2030.

Leaving the elaborate costumes, long colorful capes and catchy superhero names at the door, each one of the Business Avengers will be committed to addressing one of the 17 goals to help drive awareness and, ultimately, change. For its part, Commvault is proud to take on the mantel of SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production.

“Joining forces with other global leaders as part of the Business Avengers Coalition is a perfect way to drive positive changes and help protect the environment,” said Sanjay Mirchandani, CEO and President, Commvault. “As a longtime advocate of combining science and technology to manage the carbon footprint, responsible consumption and production is an initiative that hits very close to home. We are excited to take part in this powerful consortium of leading companies.”
