Top Companies Honoured at the 8th Annual Global CSR Summit & Awards 2016

Bali, Indonesia was the host to the 8th Annual Global CSR Summit & Awards 2016 on 21th April 2016 at Laguna Bali Report, Indonesia.

The Global CSR Summit & Awards is a prestigious international award event for Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). This year, the organisers have incorporated a new dimension into the Global CSR Summit by co-locating a new event, The Global Good Governance Award. 

The Global CSR Summit & Awards has withstood the test of time and is supported by respected companies from around the world including some of the Fortune 500 companies. The standards of this event have been raised higher to lead the practice in not accepting sponsorships from companies that want to submit their nominations for the awards. This sets us apart from all the other competing events in this space. Despite this, participation from Companies have remained strong which is a strong endorsement to the high moral ethics that this event holds.

Melvin Chan, Founder of The Global CSR Summit & Awards

The Global CSR Summit & Awards 2016 was started 8 years ago.  The aim of having this event was for the purpose of creating a Global Standard Event to raise the awareness of CSR as well as to have a prestigious awards recognition event to honour outstanding individuals and companies around the world for their contributions in environment preservation, community transformation and poverty alleviation, women’s rights and welfare, workplace practices and product innovations in CSR.

Since then, the event has grown from strength to strength and attracted a strong following of over 200 global and regional companies globally that participated or followed the event.  The Global CSR Summit & Awards has become known as a global brand known for raising cutting edge ideas and topics in matters of societal transformation, product innovations that change the world and controversial topics that aim to inspire bold ideas to drive large scale changes and improvements to the environment, people and the planet.
