How socially responsible are you?

How businesses and non-profits can drive economic and social value together.

Join Cambridge Network and Get Synergised to explore strategies for establishing a deeper and more sustainable business–charity relationship, fundamentally aligned with purpose and strategy, while experiencing the wide array of benefits it can bring to your organisation.

Businesses have supported charitable causes for a long time with donations of valuable resources. In recent years, this practice has gained even greater importance due to the rise of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) principles and the adoption of BCORP certification, amplified interest from consumers and employees, ongoing developments in procurement methods, and escalating expectations from investors. As a result, businesses are now placing a stronger emphasis on aligning their operations with broader social responsibilities.

‘92% of consumers form a more positive image of companies that support social issues and contribute to environmental efforts.’ Forbes

This panel session event is for you as a business, charity or social enterprise to find valuable ways of working synergistically for mutual benefit. After an introduction by Rachel Hales, Founder and Consultant at Get Synergised, our panellists will share how anchoring their social goals with their strategies is benefitting both their organisations and the community.
