Beijing, July 2025

CIeNET has taken a solid step forward on its sustainability journey. We are proud to announce that our 2025 Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Report has successfully passed a Type 2 third-party assurance under the internationally recognized AA1000 Assurance Standard.

This assurance verified not only the accuracy and consistency of our disclosed data, but also assessed the strategic reasoning and real-world impact behind our sustainability initiatives. Every ESG commitment we make is backed by robust data, sound governance, and meaningful action.

Conducted by the British Standards Institution (BSI), the assurance covered essential ESG areas such as energy consumption, carbon emissions, human capital management, and supply chain responsibility. Our disclosures were confirmed to be truthful, transparent, and verifiable, in full alignment with AA1000 standards — reflecting our strong commitment to stakeholder engagement and ESG accountability.

Earning AA1000 third-party assurance is not just a recognition of our past efforts — it is a powerful commitment to future action. This milestone enhances CIeNET’s transparency in capital markets, builds greater brand trust, and helps us attract like-minded investors and partners who are committed to long-term sustainable value.

At CIeNET, sustainability is more than just a report — it’s an integal part of our culture. We treat ESG not as a compliance exercise, but as a strategic imperative, embedding it into our innovation roadmap as we explore sustainable growth in the digital age.

About the AA1000 Standards

The AA1000 Assurance Standard (AccountAbility 1000 AS) is a globally recognized framework for verifying sustainability reports, developed by the UK-based non-profit organization AccountAbility. It is designed to assess whether a company’s disclosures on Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) issues are truthful, reliable, and strategically meaningful. The standard is built on four core principles: Inclusivity, Materiality, Responsiveness, and Impact.

AA1000 ensures that organizations go beyond simple data disclosure to foster meaningful dialogue with stakeholders and drive continuous improvement in sustainability performance.

The AA1000 Standard is primarily used for independent third-party assurance of sustainability or ESG reports, offering different types and levels of verification. Beyond verifying data accuracy, AA1000 emphasizes how organizations identify issues, address risks and responsibilities, and evaluate the real-world impacts of their actions. This makes AA1000 a vital tool for companies aiming to build public trust and enhance ESG transparency.
