TheOneHourProject for Business

We are delighted to attend the Company of Good Connect! Series and be part of this incredible community. Our team listened to insightful presentations from NVPC - Towards a City of Good, Singapore Business Federation, Semula Pte Ltd, an environment-focused social enterprise, and nonprofits activating the community to support animal welfare and care education. 💡 Some key takeaways: 1. Join the Company of Good Community 💙 This community offers valuable resources, including training, networking opportunities, and best practices to help businesses in Singapore enhance their social impact initiatives. We particularly appreciate the vibrant ecosystem fostered by this event, which encourages collaboration among like-minded companies committed to doing good for society. Best of all, it's free to join! We highly recommend it if you want to learn, engage, and connect with others who share a passion for positive change. Check them out here. https://lnkd.in/g_rYDb4h 2. Find Social Enterprise Partners for Your Sustainability Commitment 👯♀️ While sustainability and climate reporting are critical in Singapore, it's equally important to find innovative ways to activate these commitments. Collaborating with social enterprises like Semula, which champions a zero-waste future by transforming waste materials like plastic into reusable resources, is a great starting point. Engaging with their initiatives, attending workshops, and exploring their services can inspire new ways to create a positive environmental impact. Learn more about their services here. https://lnkd.in/gS89pTya 3. Support Animal Welfare and Education Initiatives 🦄 Animal welfare is a crucial area where businesses and individuals can make a significant difference. The event highlighted nonprofits working tirelessly to promote animal care and welfare education in our communities. We encourage businesses to explore opportunities to support these nonprofits through volunteering, donations, or collaborative projects.

💡 Redefining "business as usual" means being socially impactful We attended the UN Global Compact Network Singapore SME series yesterday. We were amazed at how the public sector and small businesses in Singapore are working towards the collective responsibility of decarbonization and how to get started. We've learned so much from Enterprise Singapore's initiatives to encourage upskilling and provide resources to help SMEs kickstart their sustainability journey. One key theme that really stuck with us is the presentation of Kok Wing Tham, Head of ESG from the Singapore Business Federation, on the importance of redefining "business as usual" for companies to thrive in the post-COVID era. He spoke in detail about how important the "S" aspect of ESG is and how companies need to be socially impactful. He highlighted these 4 key factors: 1. Connecting Business Goals with Societal Needs 2. Corporate Purpose Beyond Profit 3. Differentiated brand and increase revenue 4. Increasing importance to stakeholders like consumers, government, and community. Check out the snaps and get inspired!

Purpose has become a critical factor for a company's success today, but nothing is more powerful than putting that purpose into action.
