Our understanding of sustainability

For CONSTELLATION, taking responsibility is part of our corporate philosophy. We are aware of the responsibility we bear towards our portfolio companies, partners, employees, investors, our environment and our surroundings as a whole and would like to fulfil this responsibility with the greatest possible care.
