The Big Picture  

Both the urgency to deliver on the SDG objectives by 2030 and the pandemic have been a stress test for responsible businesses. Corporates are under pressure to deliver on social goals, as they heed voices for change from inside their organisation (employees, clients, suppliers) and outside (government, regulators, society). Corporate social investors, for their part, are trying to accelerate their impact at scale. All this heralds the end of business as usual. What’s next is the Business of Impact.

The Business of Impact

More coherence between impact and business agendas can make impact faster and bolder. But since there are many ways to achieve coherence, we’ve assembled a panel that can speak to the diverse strategies to be considered. Speakers will share concrete examples of coherence, such as thematic or business alignment of foundations and impact funds with corporate purpose, the coherence with their sustainability strategy and how they contribute to their company's global impact vision. You'll get perspectives on: managing interfaces with related corporates; interdependencies across the corporate and social impact ecosystems; and challenges and opportunities to contribute to corporate purpose and ESG strategy.

Impact Integrity 

Risky business? When corporate social investors help their parent companies find the missing S in ESG

Understanding impact integrity is vital to the work of CSIs, especially those contributing to the S of their related company’s ESG strategy. Join us for a session that presents a full range of strategies, tools for assessment and the elements that define a CSI’s impact integrity risk. Every CSI falls somewhere in the risk quadrant for alignment with their corporate entity; we’ll spark a discussion on the opportunities and challenges of each (and show why ‘risk’ might not be such a bad word after all). We’ll discuss the practical implications for impact integrity when CSIs actively contribute to the S of their related company’s ESG strategy.
