Case Study

San Jose Headquarters – LEED Gold and Bloom Partnership

In 2019, Rambus announced our headquarters would move from Sunnyvale to North San Jose. The move means a more central location for employees, reducing commute times and providing many amenities in the surrounding neighborhood. It also presented the company with an opportunity to invest in a truly green building. The new Rambus headquarters was recognized in 2021 with LEED Gold certification. LEED is the most widely used green building rating system in the world. The LEED framework for healthy, highly efficient and cost saving green buildings is recognized globally as a standard for sustainability achievement and leadership. 

In San Jose, we are also proud to partner with Bloom Energy to provide a cleaner, more dependable energy source for the Rambus headquarters building. Also based in San Jose, Bloom Energy recognizes the severity of California’s wildfires have had a frightening effect for companies based in the area and their reliance on the traditional power grid during times of crisis. Partnering with Bloom Energy, Rambus installed a Bloom solid oxide fuel cell on site to convert fuel to electricity, without combustion, to deliver reliable, resilient, clean and affordable energy for our facility.

In 2021, we engaged in discussions with CBRE to continue implementation of clean energy options in our San Jose headquarters and will be moving to 100% renewable energy in 2022.

Message from Luc Seraphin, President & CEO

For over 30 years, Rambus has been inventing ways to move and protect data. As we look to the future of ever-greater connectivity and the widespread advancement of AI, continuous improvements in computing will drive exponential growth in data usage. Rambus products and technologies are accelerating that future, not just by making data faster and safer, but also more sustainable. 

Rambus has always been passionate about corporate social responsibility and philanthropic efforts. We work diligently to harness that passion and strengthen our focus on key environmental, social and governance (ESG) programs. Our goal is to drive sustainability across our business practices, support diversity and inclusion in the workplace and improve the communities across our global footprint.

“We are actively applying our core values of innovation and performance to our work in sustainability programming. We increasingly believe that our success will be driven by a continued culture of quality, excellence, accountability, transparency, and integrity at every level.”

I am very proud of the progress we have made toward building a responsible, sustainable and inclusive vision of the future. I know there is more work to do as we continue our journey, but I am inspired by the tireless dedication and ingenuity of the Rambus family and look forward to sharing our future achievements.
