SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Sustainable development is about achieving economic growth, environmental protection and social progress at the same time. 

Business has a central role in delivering sustainable development - with the more productive use of materials and natural resources having a fundamental part to play. 

Finding practical solutions requires successful, innovative businesses

• Operating in open and dynamic markets - whose environmental costs are signalled effectively

• Exploiting greener technologies and business models in internationally competitive goods and services

• Meeting consumer demand for greater value, performance and choice in more resource efficient ways and with reduced environmental impact.  

Sustainable development, therefore, pervades DTI's mission to work with business, consumers and employers to drive-up productivity and help create prosperity for all.
