HP Canada CEO & President Mary Ann Yule Explains Why Being Green Is Good For Your Bottom Line

Sustainability is one of HP’s untold stories. At HP Reinvent 2019, HP Canada President and CEO Mary Ann Yule shared the latest ways HP is focused on the environment and the impacts that she says go far beyond “being green.”

How is HP differentiating itself in the tech space?

We do a lot of work on the planet to really make sure that we make positive impact. We work with paper suppliers to make forest positive paper so that it’s not negative to the forestry. We also make sure our cartridges come from fully recycled environments, so that we are recycling plastics and have a circular economy around it. And, it’s so much more important now as we see millennials and Gen Z join the workforce. This community of workers and soon to be leaders are much more committed to sustainability. They will automatically go - OK, HP is doing great work around this. They can rest assured that they have a trusted partner in HP.

Security is another big theme at HP Reinvent this year. How is HP making it easier for partners to succeed in this space with its latest security announcements?

Security is paramount. There’s nobody who is not worried about security. We developed the most secure, manageable PCs on earth, the most secure printers on earth. We are the only print manufacturer who can say that. These are fact-based statements. We have to make sure our customers can feel safe and they can continue to run their business and feel safe. We protect them so it’s not a concern for them.

What else are you excited to share from the conference?

Our partners are all looking to transform to perform, which is our theme for the conference. But, they’re all in because our end partners are also looking to transform to perform and to compete in the markets they service. It’s exciting that it’s resonating, and they are understanding we are all in with that message with our investments, partner community, tools and processes, technology, products that we are developing and reinventing, so that’s really exciting for me.
