“We understand that our actions have implications far beyond a signed lease, repositioning project or new development,” said Victor Coleman, CEO of Hudson Pacific. “We created the Better Blueprint platform to support our vision of vibrant, thriving urban spaces and places built for the long term. By fostering the growth and success of sustainable, healthy and equitable communities, our employees, tenants and shareholders will also benefit.”

The Better Blueprint platform outlines primary goals in each of its focus areas to achieve by 2025:

• Sustainable: Achieve net zero carbon and net zero waste across all operations
• Healthy: Ensure the entire in-service office portfolio meets the company’s Healthy Building Checklist
• Equitable: Donate at least 1% of net earnings (adjusted for gains and impairment losses) annually to charitable causes

This includes important steps to protect the health and safety of employees, tenants and local communities, with the recognition that the company’s vibrancy and resiliency is directly tied to that of the cities and neighborhoods that surround its properties.
