Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC)

With a base of over 26,000 companies, the Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC) has been named the No. 1 Global Free Zone by the Financial Times' fDi Intelligence. The Pioneers of Sustainability Awards, recently launched by the DMCC, acknowledges member companies that demonstrate substantial ESG advancements, aligning both with UAE national goals and global standards.

"As a global AIoT leader, Hikvision has successfully integrated sustainability into the core of its business, driven by continuous innovation," noted Evgeny Garanin, Associate Director for Corporate Sustainability at DMCC. "This award recognises their commitment to creating lasting value for customers, advancing social well-being, and fulfilling their global responsibilities."

Pillars evaluated by DMCC

Hikvision's ESG achievements resonate with the three key pillars assessed by the DMCC:

Advancing green development through AIoT

Hikvision prioritises green development within its sustainability strategy, incorporating eco-friendly measures throughout its entire product lifecycle. The company's efforts to enhance energy efficiency and promote low-carbon production reduce its environmental impact while offering more sustainable AIoT solutions. In September 2025, Hikvision WonderHub became the first large-format display to achieve TCO Certified Generation 10 status, underscoring the firm’s commitment to delivering eco-efficient solutions worldwide.

Fostering social good and community care

Guided by the "Tech for Good" principle, Hikvision utilises its technology to advance social welfare. Through its global STAR Program for Social Good, the company empowers non-profits to preserve natural and cultural heritage using AIoT technology. So far, Hikvision has partnered with over 30 non-profits across 14 nations and regions. Additionally, it remains devoted to local welfare, as shown by its Ramadan care campaign in Dubai, now in its third year, providing essential support to frontline workers during Ramadan.

Upholding transparency and integrity

Hikvision upholds robust governance by embedding international compliance standards and best practices—including cybersecurity, data privacy, and human rights—across its operations. This dedication to integrity was acknowledged in December 2025 when Hikvision received the ISO 37301 certification for its compliance management system, a testament to the company's commitment to transparency and accountability.

Sustainability journey

The DMCC Global Enterprise ESG Award signifies a notable milestone in Hikvision’s sustainability journey, reinforcing its adherence to the UNGC Ten Principles post its 2024 participation.

Moving forward, the company aims to continue championing sustainable development, ensuring its innovations contribute to a safer and improved global environment.
