Megan Stiles wins CRN’S Rising Sustainability Star Award

OryxAlign is celebrating executive assistant and sustainability lead Megan Stiles’ win at the CRN’s Sustainability in Tech Awards 2025.

Megan received the Rising Sustainability Star Award after identifying a gap in our strategy, where she comprised a formal environmental, social, and governance (ESG) policy despite having no prior experience in ESG practices.

Megan’s triumph comes as OryxAlign prepares for B Corp certification. Having recently submitted its B Impact Assessment, Megan led the comprehensive assessment process. B Corp is a notable verification for companies reaching high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency and accountability. Megan has also recently launched an internal Sustainability and Social Impact Team (SASI) to enhance the company’s efforts.

After joining OryxAlign in 2022, Megan has initiated various sustainability strategies. This includes our first ESG policy followed by the first ESG report. Written with reference to the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) standards, the report conveys transparent efforts like integrating ESG principles into IT services, the Carbon Reduction Plan and an Ecologi partnership.

“Sustainability is a collective effort,” explained Megan. “While this award signifies my own passion for a greener future, I would not have been able to implement these principles without the support of OryxAlign. They have welcomed these changes, and this award verifies the company’s dedication to sustainability just as much as my own.”

“Megan’s leadership has enhanced our focus on sustainability at OryxAlign,” stated Carl Henriksen, CEO. “Her proactive approach has made the company take accountability and value transparency for our customers. It means that we can offer eco-conscious IT solutions, improved compliance support and opportunities for meaningful collaboration in sustainability efforts. This award reinforces the company’s efforts for meaningful change and Megan’s dedication towards sustainability.”

The Sustainability in Tech Awards presented by CRN celebrates the achievements of channel companies across the UK. With over 200 entries, OryxAlign joined one of 29 winning companies across 17 categories.
