Business for Societal Impact (B4SI)’s Post

🌍 We’re thrilled to announce that B4SI contributed to the World Economic Forum’s State of Social Procurement 2025 report, launching today in Davos at the #WEF25! 💡 B4SI’s Procurement for Social Impact Framework provides businesses with tools to integrate, track and deliver meaningful social impact through procurement practices. Based on the expertise of our team and member companies, B4SI's contribution to the report centres on the importance of impact measurement and explores, with examples from our network, how companies are transforming procurement into a tool for reducing inequality, fostering inclusive growth, and creating sustainable value. A special thanks to B4SI members Stockland and PwC for contributing their inspiring case studies and SAP for their input. With two-thirds of a company’s potential for social and environmental impact residing in its supply chain, social procurement represents a powerful lever for change. The full report featuring research from 18 leading organisations highlights: ➡ Regulatory changes driving social impact investments ➡ Real-world case studies from 10+ countries Proud to have worked with so many amazing partners Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship, SAP, Telos , Prewave, Yunus Social Business, Lex Mundi, Working Capital Fund, Malaysia Impact Alliance (MYImpact), Accendio, Social Enterprise UK, Purchasing with Purpose, Social Traders, Euclid Network - the European Social Enterprise Network (EN), Sattva Consulting, Agora Partnerships, Aspen Network of Development Entrepreneurs, Miller Center for Social Entrepreneurship, Keidos Let’s transform procurement into a tool for social good! #SocialProcurement #SupplyChain #Sustainability #SocialInnovation

Excited to be attending the Social Value Malaysia fireside chat on February 13th (REGISTER https://allevents.in/online/let%E2%80%99s-talk-about-how-social-value-can-drive-transparency-in-procurement/100001216868198539) to discuss the Social Value Act in the UK and social procurement in Malaysia! I'm particularly interested in learning how these frameworks are being used to drive positive social impact and how businesses can leverage them to create more sustainable and equitable value chains. #SVM #SocialValueAct #SocialProcurement #Malaysia #UK

An approach that is well needed and a driver for impactful progress. That is also why CSR Europe in its 2025 programme includes an Atelier series on Supplier Engagement.
