The for-profit organisations were chosen for addressing social and environmental challenges that threaten humanity, say organisers Stewardship Asia Centre (SAC), Insead Hoffmann Global Institute for Business and Society, WTW and The Straits Times. SAC is a non-profit organisation established by Temasek in 2014.
Local social enterprises Bettr Barista, Inclus, Project Dignity and Tea-ideas join large listed companies DBS Bank, OCBC and Singtel Group in the second edition of the Steward Leadership 25 (SL25), an annual list of 25 initiatives that have made significant positive impact on stakeholders, society, future generations and the environment.
