Kind to Animals

Nebius Group N.V. operates in the cloud computing sector, providing services rather than physical products or animal-related operations. Therefore, all KPIs related to animal testing, cruelty-free certification, humane operations, animal-derived inputs, animal agriculture, and direct wildlife conservation impact are not applicable to its core business model. While Nebius awarded over $850,000 in GPU credits to companies pioneering AI breakthroughs, including drug discovery and disease prediction,

this is an award program for other entities, not a direct investment from Nebius's R&D budget into developing animal-free technologies. Similarly, the availability of Nebius's AI Cloud with open-source models that can be used for virtual modeling of molecules and drug screening enables others to potentially reduce animal testing, but it does not constitute Nebius's direct employment of non-animal testing methods for its own products or explicit participation in multi-stakeholder initiatives for animal-free standards.

Planet-Friendly Business

Nebius Group sources 94% of its electricity from low-carbon sources.

The company recycles nearly 100% of its retired hardware.
