Leveraging Infosys Topaz, the new AI-powered tool delivers sustainability-focused insights for business leaders and policymakers
LONDON and BENGALURU, India, May 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Infosys (NSE: INFY) (BSE: INFY) (NYSE:INFY), a global leader in next-generation digital services and consulting, and Economist Impact, an arm of The Economist Group that collaborates with organizations worldwide to further their missions, together announced the launch of The Sustainability Atlas to help businesses navigate a sustainable future. Leveraging Infosys Topaz, an AI-first suite of offerings using generative AI technologies, the new AI-powered tool serves as a gateway to sustainability-focused insights, providing business leaders and policymakers with data and intelligence to inform decisions that will drive meaningful climate action.
Drawing on insights from 18 Economist Impact indices, consisting of 1700+ indicators, and 500 reports and articles, The Sustainability Atlas aims to provide clear and succinct responses to sustainability-related questions. This offers an efficient way to gain a holistic view of the sustainability landscape in different geographies around the world.
Key features of The Sustainability Atlas include:
- Insights across a range of sustainability topics: The Atlas' chatbot provides succinct answers to users' sustainability questions, informed by sources that can be trusted and scrutinized across a wide range of topics from climate resilience and circular economy to social inclusion.
- Cross-geography comparison capabilities: The interactive globe feature of the Atlas allows users to understand and compare the state of sustainability between two countries and cities across a range of metrics measuring food security, health inclusion, and EV readiness. Business decision makers can use this component to evaluate region-specific sustainability risks and opportunities.
- Global coverage with local relevance: With key markets in North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific, the Atlas delivers insights relevant to diverse geographies and industries.
- Industry-specific insights: Covering key sectors such as energy, financial services, manufacturing, and retail, the Atlas can be used to extract industry-specific insights. For example, business leaders in the energy sector can use it to track and compare their company's progress within the industry on reducing emissions. Policy researchers, designing targeted industrial regulation, may use the Atlas to identify and prioritize the key sustainability challenges for different sectors.
Jonathan Birdwell, Global Head of Policy & Insights, Economist Impact, said, "Over the past decade, Economist Impact has built dozens of indices and published hundreds of reports across a wide range of sustainability topics from food security to plastics management, to climate resilience. But never before have we been able to bring all of that data and insights together in one place. Leveraging Infosys' generative AI capabilities, The Sustainability Atlas provides easily accessible and actionable insights to policy makers and business leaders worldwide."
Ashiss Kumar Dash, EVP & Global Head - Services, Utilities, Resources, Energy and Enterprise Sustainability, Infosys, said, "The Sustainability Atlas, powered by Infosys Topaz, is not just a tool to help businesses navigate today's environmental challenges; but a strategic portal that can inform and effectively shape future sustainability efforts. Imagine a world where predictive analytics, fuelled by rich data within the Atlas, anticipate emerging environmental risks – from localized climate anomalies to global supply chain vulnerabilities. We envision the Atlas evolving into a global intelligence network, guiding collaborative action towards a future where sustainability is an inherent part of our collective intelligence and actions, ultimately helping to build a thriving, resilient world."
