German DAX companies lag climate goals, Right study finds
A study by climate tech company Right reveals that most German DAX, MDAX, and SDAX companies are not on track to meet their net-zero targets, with only 26 of 71 assessed companies aligned with a 1.7°C warming pathway. Compared to 2024, 25 companies worsened their climate performance in 2025, while 19 improved and 26 remained unchanged. The worst performers include Siemens Energy and Siltronic (8.6°C pathway), Fraport and 1&1 (8.5°C), and Bayer (7.5°C). However, some companies like SAP, Evotec, and Merck showed significant improvements, and Siemens Healthineers is highlighted as a positive example, maintaining a 1.4°C pathway since 2019. The study based on public emissions and financial data points to persistent data gaps, with many companies lacking complete reporting.
O2 launches 'Mehrbilfunk' ad campaign to reposition beyond mobile
Telefónica's German brand O2 is launching a major advertising campaign to reposition itself beyond mobile communications. The new 'Mehrbilfunk' positioning, developed with lead agency Leo from Publicis Groupe, aims to promote 'Plus Bundles' that combine mobile tariffs with fixed-line, TV, streaming, additional SIM cards and smartphones. The campaign features TV spots and posters using a plus sign as a central design element. The move follows a difficult period: O2's Q2 revenue fell 11% to around €1.8 billion after losing major customer 1&1 to Vodafone, and EBITDA declined 7.2%. Telefónica is also cutting more than 1,000 jobs and closing 60 of 800 O2 shops in Germany. Steve Plesker, Director Brand & Marketing Communications, said the campaign aims to close the knowledge gap that O2 is only a mobile provider.
