Business as a Force for Good
Building cross – sector partnerships
for sustainable developmentThis project is funded by the European Union
As Members of the Bulgarian
network we strictly adhere to the Ten
fundamental Principles of the UN
Global Compact.
Serving our role of a Local Network,
we realize the responsibility and the
opportunity we have to prove to the
Bulgarian society that business has
crucial role in proactively transforming
the world for the better.
Each member company of our
Network has a portfolio of socially
acknowledged activities. However, we
do not limit our work to good practices
sharing only. We developed our
unique work approach and traditions
in uniting knowledge capacity in order
to achieve a new level of Corporate
Social Responsibility, namely CSR 2.0 –
Collaborative Social Responsibility.
Our work on developing collective
projects through applying the vast
diversity of capacity and resources
available, together with the opportu-
nities we have for exchange of
experience, provide synergy – a new
level of effectiveness and efficiency. As
a result this leads to achieving better
results in terms of projects’ scale and
quality, and it gives us better insight of
the invested resources. Each of our
collective projects brings to us high
level of satisfaction, motivation and
sense of purpose.
