Foundry Networks, LLC's reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Broadcom Inc.

Foundry Networks, LLC, headquartered in the US, currently does not report specific carbon emissions data, as indicated by the absence of figures in the latest emissions data. The company is a current subsidiary of Broadcom Inc., which means that any climate commitments or emissions data may be inherited from its parent organisation. As a subsidiary, Foundry Networks aligns with Broadcom Inc.'s climate initiatives, which include commitments to reduce carbon emissions across various scopes. However, specific reduction targets or achievements for Foundry Networks are not detailed in the available information. Broadcom Inc. has established science-based targets (SBTi) and participates in the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP), which may influence Foundry Networks' climate strategies. Nonetheless, without direct emissions data or specific reduction initiatives from Foundry Networks, it is challenging to provide a comprehensive overview of their carbon footprint or climate commitments. In summary, while Foundry Networks is part of a larger corporate family with climate initiatives, specific emissions data and reduction targets for the company itself are currently unavailable.
